or crack it open and replace the bracket that usually goes bad. You do a lot of offroad?

your reduction fork is too worn or has snapped and cannot take the reduction gear out of low. xfer case needs to be rebuilt. Its not too difficult. get a new reduction fork, oil pump, oil pump hose and gasket for between the tranny and xfercase. Also need 3-4 qts of Mercon Tranny fliud and a decent set of tools.

That oil pump bracket wears through the ridge on the case regardless of whether you go off road or not. Personally, I think anyone that has a 1356 with over 100k on it ought to open the case and weld a extension on that piece, to keep it from wearing through. Save some money that way.
