The gearbox and transfer case are back in the LWB and working perfectly. No crunching, no popping out, no noises, sweet! Oh what a difference a high ratio transfer case makes.
However... the speedo is not working, at high speed I can feel and hear a noise in the rear end while decelerating and the new starter motor makes a hideous noise which sounds like it is grinding against the ring gear on the flywheel. Oh well, getting there.

The speedo drive may need adjusting at the transfercase end.Easy to do,refer to the book of words.
Cant help with the starter mojo.

Top work Trav!
I believe fishing shops and laboratory suppliers (the sort that supply schools) are good places to buy spring balances. I borrowed one when I did the diffs on the S1,

I've tested the cable with a cordless drill and all is fine so the problem must be with the internal gear. Only problem is you can't take the shaft out with the high ratio transfer case. One of the screws you need to take out hits against the newly relocated intermediate shaft. Looks like I'll have to disconnect the tailshaft, remove the hand brake assembly and pull the whole speedo housing off. Fun fun fun!Quote:

Just take off the front of the prop shaft and check the nut - if at all loose, tighten it, put the shaft back and then try it.Quote:

Pity I couldn't pull out this little varmit without hitting the relcoated intermediate shaft of the HRTC. A good thing to check when you change out a gearbox or transfer case. :wallbash: Still, not a big job really, it was quite easy. :D
