Transfer Case

[img]http://www.myjeepforum.net/[/img] Okay any advice on the do's & don'ts of replacing a transfer case in my 92 YJ. I am just dropping the one that is in there now with an identical transfer case. But are there any tricks, secrets to keep from any furture ooppsss down the road from installation.

Make sure you tighten all the case bolts to spec.

THANKS!

nice avatar. is that you?

sorry but yes, thats me. i am a plain jane, black haired, blue green eyed monster I mean Jeepr Chick!! My time, love & $$ & heart go into Maxxwell & I neglect myself.

I'm sure he would enjoy going out in the YJ just like little Mr.RonGilbert does. Never seen a kid have so much fun like he did in Barnwell LOL. Ya'll ought to bring him out to Trees Ranch in March. Heck, even Spring Creek is fun and it's right in your back yard!

I am at SCOR ever other weekend. Thats my running tuff!! Not this weekend though, transfer case to tend with! Sure glad I havent done my nails yet!

did you already get the transfer case? do you have pullers? I have helped a buddy do a slip yoke eliminator on one. just make sure yo have a jack w/blocks that'll reach the trans for support and it should be pretty strait forward. I am sure you can get someone from the houston clan to lend a hand...

Pullers, okay talk to me! And nope no help, I am one that I want to get my own hands greasy so that way I can learn. Crappy part is the old man usually pushes me away & he takes over. I love doing my own work on my own rig!

you may need a puller to get the yokes off the old transfer case to put on your new one. autozone will loan you them if you don't already have them. replacing a transfer case really can be a two person job. meaning you and someone else. you live out by George and Jennie. Perhaps you can run it out there and use his ramp for better access...

ahh... I will look into the pullers! Ha thanks, now you made me look really smrt when I talk to othrs about pulling my transfer case! George & Jennie, who is that? Or wait I remember people by what their rig is

redneck houston and jeeperjennie are their callnames

George has the yellow 4dr with RockRash4x4 along the side. They are good people

But they don't live anywhere close to Huffman

actually, they don't live anywhere close to anywhere. i'm envious.

know how they feel, I am out here in the sticks also by Lake Houston!! I call it Haterville! The guys out here arent friendly, but you let my old man get in my rig & they speak to him all day!

Sticks by Lake Houston????.....LOL....

Crosby is the real sticks by Lake Houston......Huffman is the Garden Spot of north-east Harris County...

I don't think that Max would be able to ride shotgun with her because, if I'm not mistaken, Maxwell IS the YJ.

And little G had a blast (almost as much fun as me) I cant wait to do it again.

lol...I had to laugh when I saw him say Crosby was the sticks......hehe we are 12 miles to the closest store....lol starbucks whats that? I have to drive 20+ miles to get a mocha.....but we do have a hair care/tire shop/biker bar/taxadermy store....guess its better then living in town you can get everything done at once in the same place ...yet it's not recomended the last time I had my hair done by one of those bikers it turned out black...of course I guess that could have been because they washed it in the back of the tire shop in the oil change bay.....but I had geo do a corrective color and it looks ok now

:taz: ANd whats wrong with a YJ? :taz: He has done things in 2wheel drive that I have seen other newer Jeeps do in 4wheel drive. :drool2: Maxxwell :drool2: has proved that you dont need all that fancy smancy off road big money stuff to get a job :deadhorse: done!

Oh wait I forgot, if we want a real store like Wally World or Krogers, we call it driving over the bridge to get to Atascocita!! Like I said I live in Haterville Huffman

i think someone thought maxxwell was a kid not a jeep hehe some of the members here are brain dead...lol....

wow if i was a real store like wally world or krogers I have to drive 25 miles to tomball or cypress..........OMG I really do live out in the sticks...crap I am a hillbilly...lol

oh and on the transfer case install its pretty simple just un bolt and re bolt but remember it is a heavy little bugger
