Thread: TDI300 Transfer case??

Yes.

I have taken the one out of my D2 (pretty much exactly the same as D1) and had it back in within 2 hours i think, might have been an even shorter amount of time, its a really easy job, takes a bit of swearing lining it back up when you put it back on but other than that should be fine.

Hi all thanks for the reply's earlier.
The next Question i have, is do i have to remove the hole gearbox or can i just remove the transfer case. Anything i need to lookout for, and any special tools i may need.
Thanks Matt & Jo.

The transfer case will unbolt from the transmission.

Replace all seals before fitting the replacement transfer case (gearbox output, transfer input, transfer intermediate shaft o rings).

Be very careful refitting the transfer case as it is easy to snag the transfer input seal on the gearbox output shaft.

The best thing to do for re-fitting the t/case is make some guide rods out of extra long bolts, cut the heads off and slot the ends with a hacksaw so you can unscrew them after you've slid the t/case in.

This ensures you don't wreck the input shaft seal on reassembly.

X2! 2 guide bolts needed, M10 by about 200mm long.
Also when I did a transfer case I made a little platform to bolt to the bottom of the transfer case, so it sits level on a trolley jack. Much easier that way.
