My transfer case shift motor is going/gone. Does anybody know if there's a more rugged/reliable alternative to the OEM one? I don't ever romp on it in 4WD but it's a constant necessity because of the road conditions up here in Maine, I've buried the rear end twice in the past week and it's rather embarrassing getting pulled out by my friend's Audi A6 All-Road Huge Face-Palm😂😂😂. I can't wait to see some feedback, this site's helped me a lot so far. Thanks in Advance!

OEM is not a problematic part, most never have issues with them
make sure you have pinpointed properly. there are a lot of upstream parts that send the motor the signal
Definitely did not, New transfer case, Tried 4 new in box shift motors. Won't take 4 Hi at all, goes into 4LO sometimes, no problems coming out of 4LO back into 2WD. Front Hubs are working, little sticky but I can always get them to go in with less than a couple minutes. Rear ELD works fine. Shift motors are all getting power, I wanna say the voltage may have been an digit or 2 shy of what's called for. I've seen that there is a transfer case shift module(correct me if I'm wrong), 50 dollar part but I saw it may need to be programmed by a dealership. Wonder if anybody knows, Will this conflict with my custom single stage delete tune? As in I don't really wanna have to take my truck back over to the dyno and pay 1300 bucks to pay for something Ive already done. I'm about ready to cut a hole up through the floor board and do something improper as all heck if I can't get it figured out😑😑😂😂😂
