The output shafts of my transfercase lost fluid, while turning, before they were rebuilt. it is a common issue.
I bet it only shows when you are going uphill because the fluid levels are low already. __________________ Rigs 1986 HJ 60 5spd Con-ferr rack, Gozzard Flares, custom bumpers, 1982 BJ 60 Sold to IH8Mud member.. 1983 BJ60 For Sale 1986 HJ60 Other 1984 Mercedes 300SDC, 1982 300D, 1987 300D, 1994 E420. |

neetu, welcome the forum.
I suggest cleaning the trans/transfer case really well with degreaser. Then go for drive and check it out. Could be the output shaft seals. That is where my truck leaks. Might be between the seams. How bad does it leak? If it is a little tiny bit and you don't have to top it up often I would live with it till you want to rebuild the cases. __________________ -84 BJ60, Finally on the FN road! -91 FJ80, wife's ride Iron Butt award winner of the Cruise Moab 08 ! |

It could be the tranny being over filled from the transfer. I've had that happen when the tranny/transfer seal goes bad.
It's a common '60 series thing not exclusive to diesels. You may want to search the '60 forum too. __________________ '82 BJ60 H55 tranny, AXT turbo 3B diesel, high nickel alloy head, A/C, BDS lift, factory PTO, Aussie rear locker, OEM LSD front, 4:11's, 32's, PERFECT frame!

I plan to "join" the filler plugs with a hose. Only because at 240K kms I highly doubt it needs a rebuild and I do not want to just do a seal job. Although my output shaft seal on the rear is blown out. I have it sitting ready to replace. __________________ -84 BJ60, Finally on the FN road! -91 FJ80, wife's ride Iron Butt award winner of the Cruise Moab 08 ! |

I've had the "hose" from filler plug to filler plug for years, untill recently, upon a rebuild of both the tranny and transfer cases.
The rear output shaft bearing was pooched which in turn tends to ovalizes the rear output seal, followed by gear oil creeping onto your rear driveshaft and spraying the underside of your truck as it rotates and/or dripping onto the ground. The return "hose" was a great fix. How do you know that it only does it uphill? __________________ Nicholas 1983 BJ60 (click here for specs) www.myspace.com/bj60 Here's a slide show of my truck Snorkel install thread |
