Thread: Done Transfer Box

no damage to the box with the possable excpetion of some accelerated wear of the output splines.

I'd drop the whole box and refresh the seals on it as well as the clutch and box mounts while it was out and depending on the K's since you last did them ID be looking at the propshaft UJ's.

also check that your replacement tcase has the right ratio in it.

Thanks very much for that advice I will follow it up with the mechanics this week does that mean that the vehicle is still good I have checked that the ratio is correct the things that you advise me to do will that make it a lot more expensive im budjecting five thousand dollars for the exercise which includes the cost of the recondiotned box and thanks again

nope $5k for that work would be a touch of overkill.

you even get to replace the flywheel with a brand new one in that budget.

removing the clutch/flywheel and replacing them with brand new items as part of replacing the rear main seal should ad no more than 1 hour to the labour cost of dropping the box and you pretty much have to remove the engine mounts to get the tcase out and off anyway.

if you want to cut costs you can replace the tcase without dropping the box but generally its not that much more effort to remove the box completely and its generally a better move as its easier to put the tcase onto the box while both are on the bench.
