Advice on Swapping Transfer Cases

[Albedo18Mis]

Currently, it’s the 48-11TC, but I’m considering upgrading to the 48-13TC from the TRX platform since it’s clutch-operated and has a reputation for being tougher. I’ve been thinking about swapping the transfer case on my 2020 Ram 1500 to something more robust.

From what I've heard, a simple pin swap on the harness could make it a direct fit. Anyone here tried this swap? Does it just plug and play, or are there potential compatibility issues I should be aware of?

Unless you're prepping for the track, why not just go with a used TRX? It already has the tougher transfer case you’re after, and it could save you time and money. Have you considered that option?
