Dammit! Transfer Case is leaking like a sieve. Please help me as I remove it.

 
I don't think the wire is used for anything anymore, at least I hope not, because I don't see where it plugs into!

I will replace the seals, I'm hoping that is the cause of my trouble. Is on it better than others or all they all the same?

One concern id the roundish thing covered in silicon (see previous photo) I was looking at Julios thread and his was nice and clean with no silicon, is this something I can replace?

That wire is for your reverse lights and plugs into your transmission.

The roundish thing your are refering to is the intermediate shaft. See Part # 16 on the PDF that Rustycrawlwer shared.

There are cheap seals to buy like from Omix-Ada, but I'd stear clear of those. You can find seal kits from Novak (part GS300) or Ebay or JB (2307GSK).

If you have the transfer case out, replace all of the seals. A seal kit is relatively cheap and takes very little time with the case sitting on your bench.




And get rid of those wire nuts!!

By bench you mean backyard porch. and by getting rid of wire nuts you mean wrapping the wires with electrical tape right?

That "circular thingy" is the intermediate shaft and uses an o-ring

I nice crimp with a heat shrink or solder would be preferable, but you work with what you got.

I understand totally about the backyard porch. I work out of a boat port that's so small you can't really even work in it with the jeep parked there. No heat, no A/C. Let me see, anything else I could complain about....

Holy sh*t batman, that looks complicated, I'm not sure that I want to pull apart all those small parts just to swap some seals, maybe I'll just do the outside seals and gaskets

How did a leak turn into a complete rebuild?

Its not that complicated. What u see in the picture all goes nicely back together the same way..

But have not tried to open up a 300 yet
I paid a transmission shop $100 to do my last one

I really think your major leak is at the back of the Trans. !

You don't need to pull all of that apart to change the seals. If you don't have a problem with the gearing or bearings, don't mess with it. You can change the seals from the "outside" of the box.
