    Refreshing Gunny the thread.

    I was not talking body off restoration. I was talking getting the body up high enough to gain access to the current rear body mounts. Depending on rusted fasteners that can be a real chore. I use winches on the ceiling and bottle jacks to lift and shift the body around. A ratchet strap helps a...

    You may as well make a gantry and lift the body off the frame.

    I use seatbelts. They are everywhere and last longer than any other material I ever used. Seatbelts are good for many things besides holding your arse in the seat. I have some I have hooks sewn into and have used to pull engines on smaller vehicles.

    Another potential transmission leak on the stock CUCV. The kick down switch. It is sealed with an O ring. 3 prongs hold it in the case. The transmission pan must be off to gain access. O ring And just a parting shot of the transfer case output shaft with the splined rubber that I think is a...

    As you have already discovered it has a nylon bushing that presses an O ring into the sector rod hole. Very easy to get out with the selector rod removed. Not so easy with it still in place. I can't imagine trying it with the transfer case in the truck. Remove it save the violence and cursing...

    This is the magnet that was in the transfer case. And by the way, this episode on ! 81 was back in the late 1990's and 3 AM. I wanted to show you also that if you are changing O rings you may as well change the front out put flange seal. This transfer case is still full of lots of great parts...

    OK I am back from the operating room. I have lots of valuable information about seals and failures of the TH400 and NP208. The transmission and transfer case I dissected was destroyed during a front drive shaft CV joint lockup at highway speed. The driveshaft locked up because I just bought the...

    Keep in mind a new seal is not a guarantee of no leak. The shaft could be grooved from sand and dirt cutting into it. I would suggest that you get a visual on the seal you have and remove it and seat the new seal a bit deeper or shallower. Clean the area thoroughly before and after removal. Good...

    You do know that clip in the frame was placed there to hold the wiring harness in place. I just noticed that the pictures show the harness unattached to the clips.
