Dirt Ferguson
SILVER Star
This weekend I attempted to remove my VC from the transfer case. I started by tall 4 nuts off the driveshaft where it was connected to the transfer case flange. From there I hit a brick wall where I could not get the driveshaft to compress enough to remove it off the bolts.
Once I realized I was having serious problems separating the driveshaft from the t case, I read as many threads as I could on this problem in the 40, 60 and 80 forums.
— I removed the grease zerk on the drive shaft
— I drove over some big bumps on rough roads
— I sprayed wd40 into the female end of the grease zerk port
— I used multiple large stout flat head screwdrivers to try to separate the driveshaft from the t case flange with little progress
so far none of this has made a difference. I know several other people have dealt with this issue.
getting a pry bar in there is next. If anyone else has dealt with this and has some guidance, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
