Oil leak from transfer case in hilux?
Gday, ive got a 93 2.8L lux, and its started leaking from where the front shaft goes into it. How hard is it to do at home, and wat tools would be needed. is it just a seal in it? cheers for all ur help in advance
Input or Drive shaft?
If its input, its a prick of a job, drop the transfer. If its just the drive shaft, go to CBC and ask for a front output seal assembly (should be a steel bit, Fibre ring and the actual rubber seal).
Drop the oil fron the transfer, Then undo your front drive shaft (this can be a prick if you still have the Cardin scatter shield in place- may have to drop the crossmember) Drop that off, use a 32mm socket to undo the output shaft nut (dont bother un-staking it, just put it into 4wd and 1st gear and put a breaker bar onto it, and it will come off) Remove the flange, Undo the 4 12mm bolts that hold the front bearing cover on, knock it off gently, put it on a bench, replace the seal assembly, check the flange for any bad pitting or wear rings. If its REALLY badly worn, you may have to get a speedy sleeve or a new flange.
install is reverse of removal
