Metal transfer case shift fork?

[rsm688]

Do any of you know the part number for the metal transfer case shift fork? All I can find online is Dorman and other generic brand parts. Is that what you guys are using or is there a better part out there?


Also, is there anything else I need to order other than that one piece for replacing the shifter fork? Is there a gasket or does it use RTV/.


I am trying to have all the parts here and ready for when I pull the transfer case on Monday


Thanks,
Spencer

I would be surprised if anyone, aftermarket or GM supplier, made replacement forks out of anything but metal.... but I couldn't tell you by experience who does what.

Hey Spence

I've done a lot of tcase work... before finally punting and just buying Kaleb's. I have a working one ready to go as soon as I stuff all the parts back together... (one of these days I'll do that!) but Kaleb and I spent a bit of time rebuilding mine (several times). So if you're stuck or just want to talk through something let me know.

Reaper, thanks a ton that is a very generous offer and I very well may take you up on it. I'll let you know once I get it torn down and start playing with it

SuperBuickGuy, yeah I figured that they are all metal now I just didn't know if there was a particular shifter fork that was OEM or considered better than the generic Dorman and others listed on eBay/online


thanks,
