I would suggest adjusting the shift rod a little bit. Might not be fully engaging. If you have small hands, it can be done without lowering the tcase.When wheeling in 4 low it will randomly pop out, if held by hand at all times its good. Any experience or suggestions?
Yes they do. It’s underneath the center diff lock motor. There is a t40 torx with a spring and a check ball.Do these have a detent spring like the gearboxes? I seem to remember a few last time I disassembled one.
Yeah your right as soon as there was a change in load it would pop outIf the gears were being spat out by a bad tcase, it would be making all sorts of angry noises. Yours sounds like a detent spring. On my 61 series I had a bungee cord holding it in 5th gear and on my Triumph I had to hold the gearshift lever with my foot. They were not jumping out of gear, they were "falling out" as soon as the load was removed to deaccelerate.
Im really green to the 80 series, where exactly is the center diff motor? Anyone have pics? I imagine on the transfer case somewhereYes they do. It’s underneath the center diff lock motor. There is a t40 torx with a spring and a check ball.
Do you have to dismantle much to access the spring and ball?Yes they do. It’s underneath the center diff lock motor. There is a t40 torx with a spring and a check ball.
Sorry keep track of the length coming out?This is what you need to remove. It’s 4 12mm head bolts. Keep track of the length coming out. I just swapped out gears, so I had it all the way out.
