Transfer Case Seal

Post by cruise75 »

Transfer case is leaking from case to front diff. Is this hard to replace by myself and what is the best way to attack it? Cheers

assuming its a 75???

I haven't done a 75 specifically before, but if its like the others i've done, undo the drive shaft and remove it. get a rattle gun onto the big nut on the flange and remove. carefully prise out seal and refit carefully.

If it's the early split case, as above. If it's the later fzj/hzj75 case then the case has to be dismantled to get to the front output seal.

So by splitting the case this would mean buying the full seal kit with bearings and seals, yes?

It's wise idea yes since you have it all apart.

I rebuilt my transfer on my 75 a while ago, wasn't too hard.

I just bought a good detailed workshop manual and it all made sense once i split the case. took a few pics before i pulled things apart which helped.
