      And just like that, a year and a half later, it's time for an update. I said when I tore my Orion apart again, I would document it. So, here it is. This last hunting season, I had the same problem, if not worse, of my transfer case popping out...

      Isn‘t that bushing just the 75-80 era? Or did AA use the earlier variant? I’ll have to measure an Orion tomorrow. We have OEM and aftermarket of the 75-80 in stock @ Cruiser Outfitters

      The AA forks have been proven to be twisted out of the box. When checking the output to bushing measure at both ends and in the middle, see what you get, curious what the gap/difference was ? That bushing is for some reason hard to find if at all.

      While one would like to think that, like the old adage, a 10 cent fuse will blow before a $300 TV, those of us who live in Murphy’s world know that is not the case. What it means here is that while a bronze bushing should deterio before a...

      Mark/Mr Murphy, I don't like what you are implying. And I don't like that I just went out with my caliper and measured my output shaft. And I really don't like that I just ordered a new output shaft since mine is most definitely worn. D'oh...

      The fork is worn a bit oddly. It seems it isn't making contact with the shift collar evenly front to back - tilted maybe a better word. The shift fork and collar were new from AA when I installed them. So what should I do here? Leave it...

      clearance between output shaft and bushing inside hi speed gear, I bet it is hour glass shaped, measure front, back & middle. Shift collar and dog teeth condition. Mine still pops out hi on decent/decel, I know the bungee is wrong, its been 20...

      I'd be very curious to hear what your end play measurements are when you drop the Orion. Great pic, that was a fun day!

      I had a similar problem and I mixed and matched the shift rail, spring, and ball bearing until I got a combination that would hold. I don’t remember which was Toyota and what was AA, it was more about playing with it to find the right combo. I...

      Chances are the hi-lo fork and collar are both worn, prematurely. My symptoms were the same.

      So, I'm having a problem with my Orion. As there are now 47 pages on the Orion sticky, please forgive me for asking a dumb question and not going through all those pages. I did go back a couple of pages and didn't see anything. My Orion is...
