Transfer Case Removal (1 Viewer)

Thanks for your reply. I had read where you want to keep the transfer case in place as to not mess up the driveline. I will pull the whole drivetrain now.

Hey bigassbike
I really want to thank you for those pictures they are invaluable. I am about to undergo a t-case rebuild and got all the bolts off except the two I did not see behind that cover. Did you do a complete rebuild? I was going to get the bearing/gasket/ seal kit from CCOT. I recently changed all the fluids and wnet out the next morning and there was a hugh puddle of 90 weight under the front snout of the t-case. The only way I could remove the drive shafts was to press a nail in the grease fitting while at the same time applying pressure to to get all the grease out. Is this the sign of some problem? Seemed like a dubm way to drop the shafts.

You probably already got the nut off but what I did was slide the e-brake drum back on and apply the e-brake. Nut came right off.

In the tech section, a homemade, very easy I might add, puller for the transfer case. Works like butter.

I was just trying to fix leaks and everything looked ok so I kept it simple. Simple is a relative term, it was still a lot of work. I'm glad the pictures helped. It would have save me a bit of time and effort if I had them so I thought I would try to help the noobs like me.
