Cheap Jeep Series - Leaking Transfer Case Seal!
I have created a new posting series!
This series is to show others you can buy very cheap vehicles and fix them yourself for cheap, or even fix your current vehicle!
Checkout the previous #CheapJeep posts!
To remove this seal, first the drive shaft had to come out. Begin by stealing your wife's fingernail polish (this is a test to see if she reads my posts). Before you remove it you'll want to mark the drive shaft so you can reinstall it exactly how it came off.
This is very simple to do, just remove the 4 bolts (2 on each side) holding it on. You may need to push the driveshaft forward a little bit and pull down to get it to separate.
Pull the drive shaft out towards the rear of the vehicle. Careful, some fluid may come out. (This is after I pulled it out)
Now you can start removing the seal. I used a cold chisel and a hammer by putting the chisel under the lip of the seal and hitting it to bend it in, a few profanity's later eventually I was able to get a good angle on the seal and pull it out.
The new one can be installed now. I put some transmission fluid on the outside of it to help it slide in easier. You can put a big socket over it and tap it in with a hammer, or gently tap it all the way around to seat it until it's flush.
Slide the driveshaft back in, and line up your fingernail polish marks, then reinstall the straps and 4 bolts. A torque wrench and blue loctite will come in handy here. Now that is it! Top off any fluid that you lost, then drive around the block then recheck to insure it isn't leaking anymore.
I LOVE getting feedback! Do you have suggestions or comments on how to improve my posts? If so, post them below, I want to hear from you!
