That seems like a lot of work for something behind the transfercase. I think his best bet would be to drop the tank and use some sort of puller.

Man I couldn't tell you, mine pretty much broke it self off, also the genius that put it in years ago "modded" my gas tank so it appears I have more room than you down there

Hey buddy can you send me a pic. Im in okc

Okay that is my conclusion as well. I just wanted to make sure that this is indeed a tcase thing and not something else. These trucks are crazy simple so I wanted to rule everything out.

Alright so my O/D killed it self back in december and I have since returned back to a stock transfer case without a PTO or Fairey overdrive. However, I had this rumbling or grinding noise that made a whine anytime I got up to about 40 mph. At first I figured it was just the oil getting to all...

Okay now I understand. I have done a few things out of order but I think I've got it. I can send you these studs once I have them removed. In return can send me in the right place for a block off plate now that the od will be removed or tell me what the correct name is do I can find one.

Thanks bro I'll see what I can do. I'm not seeing how to remove the plug that everyone seems to refer to in other forum posts. It's inside the shaft and takes a 1/2 in drive. I seen it in there but have no clue on how to take it out and from what I read that's important to the process

It's pre 8/80

Alright I know this has been posted countless times but I swear I have searched through every post from this site and others and not founderstand my answer. I have a stock 1980 fj40 4 speed with the fairy (fairey) overdrive. My o/d crapped out. All I want to do is remove the od and get her back...

Hey joe I'm currently trying to remove mine, what did you fo to get it out?

Okay guys so I finally got to tinkering with it today after a brutal week. I removed the bottom half or "oilpan" of the od unit removed all of the bolts and the c clamp holding the gears in place on the od shaft. Also managed to did assemble all of the linkage. Still can't get this darn thing...

I appreciate all of the info guys. Already this has proven to be a great resource. I'm gonna wrench on it after this week or next due to college finals and post more info later
