Topic: Transfer case gasket.

[SLIVER]

Does anybody know what the gasket is called that goes between the taransmission and the transfer case? Not the seal that goes around the shaft, but the gasket that goes on the mating surfaces. The local part stores can't seem to find this in their system. According to them it doesn't exist.
I need one by saturday, so if I need to get one from Marlin I'll have to get it coming tomorrow.

Thanks

we don't show it(napa). I have tried back when we were still Victor gaskets, and now that we are felpoo. cut your own, or get one from MC. AFAIK, no aftermarket company makes one. I assume that is why marlin's have MC stamped in them instead of regulare gaskets like the rest of the ones that come in the tcase rebuild kit.

I couldn't find one either so I just used silicone. No leaks so far.

This is what I was thinking of doing too. Anyone have a reason this wouldn't work or does the gasket HAVE to be used?

I've always used sillycone.

silicone works.  something better then ultra grey though.

i like the black silicone, but i have a few of theso gaskets layin around

ultra grey works best for high torque loaded applications, ultra black is the most oil-resistant. MC uses ultra grey.

Ok silicone it is, thanks guys. I will be doing the engine swap this saturday, so i'm trying to get all my crap together so that it'll be a 1 day project.

i used ultra black rtv on my dualcase setup instead of the gaskets and no leaks

[Hyena]

i haven't had much luck with ultra grey.  i like to use The Right Stuff.

I had some High Temp RTV layin around, the orange stuff. So far so good. couple hundred miles on the street and 1 snow run and no leaks.

Napa sells sheets of gasket material that is a quality material. Make a pattern and cut yourself.

Its cheap too. About $7 for a 18x36 piece
