2G transfer case collar

[rival]

so I was under the car yesterday and noticed that there is what looks like a collar that is around the driveshaft and it is just loose floating there, looks like it has been rubbing on the driveshaft, does this need to be there? or how is it held onto the transfer case. I have tried to search for this but had no luck. thanks.

It's the dust shield that goes onto the tail housing of the tranfer case that keeps debris off of the driveshaft yoke and has come off of the tail of your case. See if you can slide it back onto the rear of the transfer case where it belongs. If you go to google or on eBay and search for a transfer case for a dsm you can see a picture.

ok, so its pretty easy to fix? just slides back on?

I would bet anything that this is what you're looking at. I have to remove mine to use my Frontline Fab transfer case brace. Yes it should slide back on although I have to tap and pry mine off so it may not just slip back on as its a press fit but not to tough.
