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

And that short brass post is the four-wheel-drive indicator


 
And be sure to make an index mark on the yoke and shaft so you can reassemble them in the same position.
 
Yoke came off, now I just have to wait for my seals to arrive in the mail. Oh yeah and I have to figure out how to get the old seals out. Then I have to figure out how to get the new ones in and how to get the Tcase back through the exhaust and into place then pray and hope that the new seals actually stop the leaking. (wouldn't be surprised if they don't)
 
Old ones out: there is a $10 seal puller you can buy at most parts stores. Be careful not to mar the cast iron when you're pulling it out.

New ones in: I bought a small length of PVC pipe the same diameter as the seal from Ace for about $1.50. Use that to slowly and evenly drive the new seal into place.

This information is all out there on googles. There's all sorts of write-ups on disassembly and reassembly.

The question is still out there - what have you got supporting all this with the pan out?

LOL, you just move too fast. 2 hours after you asked about how to remove the yoke, and it was already too late to caution you?
:banghead:
 
transmission is now supported with a jack. though it sat all night unsupported. Am I screwed? if so, there will be a rust free tub and frame for sale. Now taking bids.
 
You're probably okay. I was actually wondering if you had some kind of aftermarket or custom fabricated support on your transmission.
The torque arm in this pic looks different than I've seen before.

Usually the arm ends near the bushing, but yours looks like it may extend upward (beyond the edge of the photo) to connect to something (maybe the frame or tub?).
 
Tis true, the exhaust is pretty sturdy and the transmission is hooked to the exhaust
 
You did check that the breather was clear before starting all this? If its blocked then the pressure builds up in the case and blows out through the easiest path which has to be a seal.
Its the pipe that comes out on top of the tail housing, check its clear because if its not then the new seals will also leak. :(

Are you talking about the little nozzle on the Tcase that is connected to a hose?
 
Well, pretty sure I FUBAR-ed it now. I went to pry the seal out that I thought sat behind the yoke for the rear drive shaft, well I don't think there was a seal there and I was actually prying on the housing, This **** is really getting old, I hate trying to do things without the proper knowledge. Here is pic tell me how bad I F-ed it up and how expensive it will be to replace. Notice the ring sitting on top, yeah I pried that out. Man I tried doing this crap to save money but it's going to cost me more, if not my whole jeep, 20140215_101524_resized.jpg
