Large bolt from T-case to Crossmember?
« on: May 13, 2009, 09:51:42 PM »
In an effort to track down a wobble, I noticed that the large bolt going from the tcase mounting bracket to the crossmember looked loose; so that the bottom of the tcase is not sitting on the bushing in between the tcase and the crossmember. Is this normal? or is the large bolt supposed to be tight so that the tcase is flush with the bushing on the crossmember???

your mount is worn out.  the rubber droops and the bolt(mechanical interlock) droops down.

great thanks for the info. Would my worn out mount cause a vibration at speed?
