Is the humvee transfer case an open transfer case?

Yes I saw that disc brake at the wheels conversion on YouTube, done by Midwest military equip. But I didn't find any info on their site about parts or anything.

The Tesla trans is a 9.73:1 stock. I did see a new gear set that'll take it down to 4.5:1 but, I haven't been able to find out if that'll also cut your torque output in half.

If they aren't changing the motor, then cutting the transmission output gearing in half will also half the torque, but double your top speed.
But if you were looking at trying to go to a 1:1 differential using the 9.73:1, then going to the 4.5:1 with a 4.88:1 rear end will be basically the same output torque/speed at the wheels.
