Lt95 no high range

Make sure you fit up the centre diff assembly to the transfer case first as you won't be able to get it past the intermediate shaft assembly if you don't after it is loctited together,

The bearing came off very easily. It was just starting to take the strain on the press when it popped.

The gear has one flush face and a lip on the other face. The wear marks on the gear and diagram in the manual indicate the lip goes against the bearing, but the diagram is very vague.

So just confirming, the flush side faces the diff while the lipped side faces the bearing?

I have the gearbox standing up on the bell housing, so I can remove the intermediate shaft and slide all the gears and shims out of the way, then slide them all back into place afterwards. I had to do this to remove the diff in the first place.

Correct, you should be able to see the marks on flush side of the gear where it fits against the shoulders on the centre diff. With the 0.996 ratio you can fit the centre diff with the intermediate shaft in situ as the hi range gear is smaller that the other ratio gears.

the gear will but the bearing won't clear the intermediate shaft high range gear will it? iirc i had a devil of a time.

Hi JC, it will with a little jiggling, I have done it several times. .996 is the only ratio you can do it with, saves a fair bit of time if you are only working on the centre diff and don't need to remove the intermediate shaft.:)

Ah, i lost patience (working at night on a non paying job when i should be at home )and removed the bearing off the end, fitted it into the cup and quickly rammed the cd assembly in:D (gently you understand...:angel:)
