I believe it was the first one AA modified to work with a toy box.
The first attempt I had problems keeping it in low and high range.
AA provided me with the new shift rail/detent ball/spring, no real improvement.
Third try AA sent the back cut gear and stepped thrust washers. This cured the high range problem.
Fourth try, I talked to Mike (AA GM) at Cal4WD expo. We arranged for me to drop my case at one of AA's distributors in Auburn. Mike picked it up there and took it to Moab then back to the factory where Randy went through the whole case. (My T-case has been to Moab put neither me or my 40 have, how sad is that?)
The jury is still out but so far I have only had the case come out of gear once in low range. This may have been a linkage issue. Next week we are going to do the Barney Riley trail which should tell the tail.
Performance issues aside I have to say that it has been a pleasure working with AA. Their customer service is some of the best I have encountered anywhere. Every product will have problems at some point, how the vendor handles them is what makes the big difference. IMO AA has done a great job in my case.
