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

Bench pressing 300s are great exercise. I look foward to it every time. :)

I'm going to give it another go this morning. I am going to remove the O2 sensors and try to disconnect the exhaust from it's support brackets so it will lower enough to get the 30 over it.
 
came back to the thread....just an update, (didn't want to go through the 11 pages)....

did you remove the skidplate, driveshafts and transfercase shifter???
 
Did I read somewhere that second gear is grinding? Maybe this is a sign that you should have the tranny rebuilt before the transfer case goes back in....
 
Man, you need to run to harbor freight and pick up a cheap jack.

yes but did he drop the skid plate??????? did a quick scan and didn't see that it was removed
 
If he was up north here he could be opening up a new can of worms trying to drop the skid plate.
 
okay went back and looked at the pics....

skid plate off.....

put the transfercase on a floorjack and jack er up....right????? am I missing something????
 
He doesn't have the exhaust pipe problem....in this case the exhaust is holding up the transmission....hmmmm.

I think my bad memory may be making this harder than it really is. Does the bottom of the Tcase sit level to the ground or does is slant downward towards the drivers side and is anyone willing to take a quick picture for me?

Well I got it all back together tonight and took it out for a drive. All seemed fine for the first 1/4 mile or so and then I dropped my rear drive shaft. The U strap broke, (bolts were still in) Worst sound in the world. I don't know what I did wrong to cause that. Maybe I tightened the too much? Though its hard to tighten something when all you are using is a 4 inch long 1/4inch wrench, there isn't alot of leverage there. I'm also pretty sure I got the bolts on tight as I double checked everything before I put the skid plate back on.

Pushed in into a parking lot, went home, came back, took off the rear drive shaft, put the front axle in low and drove home. FML.
 
well at least the drive shaft still appears straight. but I'll be buy two u-joints and paying to have the balance checked at the very least. I really don't know what happened to the strap, I was only going 35mpg. I think that maybe the cap came up and got caught on the little lip and I didnt get it seated all the way in, but even that is hard to imagine.

I'd guess that you're right. The caps were probably not seated caused this. Get some new u-joints in there and enjoy it.
