Divorced transfer case

[zuffen]

My new project is going to need a divorced transfer case and the only ones I can find that would be available in Australia are (I think) MK units.

Could anyone tell me how much torque they can handle and what I would expect to pay for one?

I think the 720 Nisans also had a divorced transfer case.

Thanks that helps.

Now are they tough enough to handle 450/500lbft of torque?

I don’t know, the transfer case in my Nissan has never given me problems, touch wood, but I had a 308 and now the 1uzfe v8 hooked up and it has handled that ok.

A nissan patrol transfer case can be divorced fairly easily. A land rover case can also be divorced. As can most cases how much work is involved with doing so you'll need to work out though.

There are quite a few 4wd drive trucks with divorced transfer cases and arent physically to big to fit in a normal 4wd. Try a truck wrecker. Chances are if its in a truck it will be pretty solid.

as aferal said, a GQ/GU case would be very easy to adapt. it has a sealed female input shaft that would lend itself to having a press fit spline inserted into it and then a spline to suit a front or rear patrol tailshaft flange on the other end.
easy as pie(if you know a machist)
