Lt230 Transfer Case Advice

Yep, in the end a mild press fit and as you say no sealant on that one. I think I would use sealant just in case, but only a little.

We have done 3 cases, of which 2 are in use and one (the one in the pics) is a spare.

None have leaked yet.

Heaps of stuff in that thread on my 90, rebuild steps for the gearbox and transfer, suspension work, diff builds etc etc.. its all a bit of a mess and in no order tho so sorry about that!

I believe you can buy a case which has already been sleeved from MR Automotive. I think they may use a parallel sleeve, not the stepped one we have been using from Ashcrofts.

Mine is MR Automotive and yes, straight sleeve. Decided freighting back and forth between Dwn and Bris was not cost effective.

I did a write up titled LT230 but to computer illiterate to post a link:( could be some info of interest if you find it

Yes...it's personally very upsetting to see the standard of work to which I will have to aspire!!! :(

So in regard to rebuilding the centre shaft I should also consider shims instead of the crushable sleeve?

Also tried checking AM's other threads to see if there was a post on the hydraulic winch but could not see anything. By mid mounted does AM mean you can use the same winch fore and aft? Did AM do a write up. The hydraulic pump/clutch looks different to the one I have from MR Automotive.
