bad transfer case.. rebuild it myself?
After a lot of help from the members here and a great mechanic at the local midas shop, I have issolated the noise and vibration that I am feeling at 70Mph and higher. The output shaft of the transfer case has a lot of slop in it. The output bearing must be in bad shape! Anyway, my question is should I rebuild it myself or buy a remanufactured unit with a one year warrantee. I can get the remanufactured unit for about 800.00 with the warrentee or I can try to crack this puppy open and do it myself. In general, if I can get it apart without breaking it, I can usually get it back together. Are there any special tools or skills that are required to do a good rebuild job or is it take the pieces out and put the new ones in? Can I get the old one off without the use of an overhead lift. I am limited to a set of car ramps and a floor jack.
Thanks, Doug |

just be careful with the drive shaft. If you let it slip off one of the floor lifts you could have some problems. go for it.

http://jeephorizons.com/tech/tcase.html That is a good reference for removing and swaping rebuilding parts.
Ive done plenty of Trans without a lift! |
