I want to give a big shout out/ two thumbs up to Cruiser Outfitters, mainly Bryce and Olly. If you have been following on here you will remember that this spring I bought a H55/split case from them. After installing this I noticed almost right away that there was a slow leak coming from the right side of the transfer case. A phone call later Bryce sent me a new gasket set and asked me to install this, hoping that will stop the leak. What a pain to open the back half of the transfer case due to the center cross member being so close to the rear of the transfer case. Fumbled around and got the rear cover off and replaced the gasket. Refilled and not too long after I still had a small leak. Fortunately the leak was small enough that we were still able to take trips with the Ute. Another call to Bryce and he talked with Olly. Olly then called me. He is the one who opens up new transfer cases when customers want custom gear sets. I had narrowed down the leak coming from one bolt area. Olly suggested I pull that bolt and fill the hole with sealer and install the bolt, thinking that the leak was coming from inside the bolt hole. Did that and it still was leaking. So getting frustrated about this I decided to use some of that leak test fluid in the transfer case oil. Then using the special flashlight I found the source of the leak.
