INFORMATION

Bulletin No.: 12-04-21-001B

Date: April 11, 2013

Subject: Transfer Case Identification First Design vs. Second Design

Models:

2007-2013 Cadillac Escalade Models

2007-2013 Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe

Equipped with Magna X2T Transfer Case (RPOs NQF, NQG, NQH or NP0)

Supercede:

This bulletin is being revised to add the 2013 model year, clarify the information from the previous bulletin and to add data throughout. The

document should be reviewed and treated as new information. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 12-04-21-001A (Section 04 -

Driveline/Axle).

The purpose of new product information is to document important product changes that occur either model year-to-model year or interim model

year.

Changes may include one or more of the following items:

- Specification changes

- New sealants and/or adhesives

- Disassembly and assembly procedure revisions

- Mechanical and diagnostic procedure revisions

- New special tools required

- Interim model year design changes

- A component comparison from the previous model year

Interim Model Year Design Change - NQF/NQG/NQH/NPO Front Output Shaft, Deflector, Seal

2010 Cadillac Truck Escalade EXT AWD V8-6.2L Page 382

Interim 2012 model year, a new design front output shaft deflector (3) was implemented into production for second design NQF-HD/SHD and

NQG-HD applications. First design 2011 model year NQF and NQG applications can be identified as not having the deflector on the front output

shaft.

For service, the new design front output shaft, deflector and new design seal may be installed on current and prior model year Magna

NQF-HD/SHD, NQG-LD/HD, NQH-LD/HD and NP0 applications providing the new design front output shaft is also installed. The front output

shaft deflector is to be installed using the J 8092 - driver handle (1) and DT 50649 - seal installer (2).

The new design deflector (1) can be installed onto all current and prior model year Magna RPOs NQF, NQG, NQH and NPO applications

providing the new design front output shaft (2) is also installed. Second design front output shafts can be identified by the machined area on the OD

output end of the shaft (2). First design front output shafts can be identified by the dust boot clamp groove (3) located at the OD output end of the

shaft. The new design slinger will NOT install onto the first design shafts.

Service Parts Release Usage Change - NQH/NPO Control Actuator Levers

2010 Cadillac Truck Escalade EXT AWD V8-6.2L Page 383

Light Duty (LD) 2007-2010 MP3023-NQH and 2010 MP3010-NP0 production transfer cases are built with LD control actuator levers (3 and 6)

and are used with 13 mm (0.52 in) diameter control actuator lever balls (5).

Heavy duty (HD) 2007-2010 MP3024-NQH production transfer cases are built with HD control actuator levers (3 and 6) and are used with Heavy

10 mm (0.39 in) control actuator lever balls.

When replacement of one or both of the LD control actuator levers is required, it is necessary to replace both of the levers and all three balls with

the HD components as a set. It is also necessary to re-measure and adjust clutch pack clearances as required and to perform the Transfer Case

High/Low Clutch Reset. Refer to Measuring/Adjusting Clutch Assembly Height in Transfer Case Assemble, Transfer Case Description and

Operation and Transfer Case High/Low Clutch Reset. Heavy duty (HD) components are the only parts available for service.

Interim Model Year Design Change - NQG High/Low Shift Fork, Fork Pad, and High/Low Clutch

Interim 2012 model year the High/Low shift fork, fork pad and High/Low clutch design changed. The first design forks (2) can be identified as

having three flat un-notched fork pad areas with three separate fork pads (1). The second design forks (4) can be identified as having a half-round

shaped pad area with three notches for pad orientation and installation and upper and lower half-round fork pads (3). The second design shift fork

(4) and pads (3) are the only design available for service and must be used with the second design High/Low clutch.

Interim 2012 model year the High/Low shift fork, fork pad and High/Low clutch design changed. The first design high/low clutch (1) can be

identified by having a 73 mm (2.87 in) OD rear flange (2). The second design high/low clutch (3) can be identified by having a 76 mm (2.99 in)

2010 Cadillac Truck Escalade EXT AWD V8-6.2L Page 384

OD rear flange (4).

For service:

- The first design 73 mm (2.87 in) high/low clutch may NOT be used with the second design fork and pad.

- The second design 76 mm (2.99 in) high/low clutch must be used with the second design fork and fork pad.

- The second design 76 mm (2.99 in) high/low clutch may also be used with the first design fork and pad if first design fork replacement is not

required.

Interim Model Year Design Change - NQF/NQG/NQH Front Case Half Assembly, Input Shaft, Planetary Carrier High/Low Clutch

Interim 2012 model year for Magna light-duty and heavy-duty transfer case RPOs NQF / NQG / NQH, a second-design front case half assembly,

planetary internal gear, gear retaining ring, locking plate, thrust washer-front, input shaft, pilot bearing, thrust washer-rear, high/low planetary

carrier and high/low clutch were implemented into second-design assemblies.

The second-design light duty (LD), heavy duty (HD), and super-heavy duty (SHD) applications have a reduced OD dimension carrier and the

second-design planetary internal gear has a reduced ID dimension. The planetary internal gear is a press-fit non-serviceable component and must be

serviced with the front case half assembly. In service it is possible that a new or remanufactured transfer case may contain first or second-design

content.

If a second-design transfer case has been installed into a vehicle that originally contained a first-design assembly, TCCM reprogramming is not

required.

For production, the following transfer cases variations were produced:

- 2007-12i Magna LD NQG/NQH - produced with first-design content. First design service components are available. A second-design

assembly may be used for back-service in a first-design application.

- 2007-10 Magna HD NQF - produced with only first-design content. Service components are available.

- 2007-10 Magna HD NQG - produced with only first-design content. Service assemblies may contain either first or second design content.

Both first and second design service components are available.

- 2007-12i Magna HD NQH - produced with first-design content. First design service components are available. A second-design assembly

may be used for back-service in a first-design application.

- 2011-12i Magna SHD NQF/NQG - produced with first design content. First design service components are available. A second-design

assembly may be used for back-service in a first-design application.

- 2012i-13 Magna LD NQG/NQH - produced with second-design content. Second design service components are available.

- 2012i-13 Magna HD NQH - produced with second-design content. Second design service components are available.

- 2012i-13 Magna SHD NQF/NQG - produced with second-design content. Second design service components are available.

Production Assembly Breakpoints

The design level and component content of the transfer case can be determined by referencing the assembly part number located on the

identification label.
