T-case leakage
« on: Mar 21, 2004, 12:20:52 PM »
I wrote another post about this but I have figured out my problem.  My T-case leaks at the seals where the drivelines bolt on.  I've never taken a t-case apart before.  Can I just take off the nut and replace the seals or will I have to fully rebuild it?  Thanks.

I am interested in hearing about this topic.  Mine is also leaking where the rear driveline bolts up.

This is not a big deal.

Remove the rear driveline and with a air wrench, buzz off the 30 mm nut. When the flange is removed, a little gear oil will seep out.
Pry out the old seal will a large screwdriver, and after you prelube the sealing grove of the seal, tap the seal in till it is flush with the rear housing.
Using 400 grit sandpaper, lightly sand the seal surface and then install the flange. To prevent oil seepage, seal the washer with silicon and torque the output nut to 90-95 ft lbs. Restake the nut with a dull chisle.

Thanks for the feedback Marlin.  I was hoping it would be an easy job.  I just changed my diffs to 4:88's and I just wanted to make sure their was no crush sleeve in the t-case.  I'm just glad I dont have to pull it and rebuild it.  Thanks again
