    Which machine shop to sleeve a LT230?

    Rebuilding my LT230 transfer case and I'm wanting to sleeve the intermediate shaft before I put it all back together.

    Looking for a machine shop in Sydney who is setup to machine a LT230 housing for the intermediate shaft sleeve. I'm sure most machine shops could do it but I'm sure I will save myself time and money (and get a better quality job) by going to someone who does this regularly. Any suggestions?

    I have a sleeve from Ashcroft and case is clean and dismantled.

    I'm not sure, but check in with Davis Performance as they still seem to be doing machining.

    Two threads merged and moved to Technical Chatter.

    Don't post the same question multiple times in multiple areas.

    I realize this does not answer your original question, however MR Auto in redcliffe offer an exchange service on the casing

    Is Bruce still doing that work since they moved from Annagrove? Anyway, his contact details are:

    Ph: (02) 9679 1978
    Fax: (02) 9679 1993
    info@davisperformance.com

    Alternatvely, I'd definitely give MR in Brissie a try.

    I'm not definite, but in his Windsor shop he fitted steel valve guides into an AMC head for me. Based on this, I'm assuming he still has a machining workshop, or at the very least he may still have the ability to get it done.

    Possibly done by an automotive engineering workshop in the same complex. KLR uses that workshop, too. John and Costa do nice work and build some very powerful engines.

    I think this is them:

    That would make a lot of sense in that case! Thanks for this!
