I forgot to add that I did press the old input shaft assy apart. The teeth on the gears appear to be gashed quite a bit so that they will engage with the set of teeth when syncro's stop the relative movement between all of the parts. As surface that the synrco's engage is tapered as they wear...
I got the replacement sprag case from Jim Henry's Trucks & Equipment (www.henrystrucks.com/) for $300 less parking brake assy. He also had air shift cases for $500 less parking brake assy.
I removed the upper in put shaft assy and it honestly didnt look any different to me than the one I...
I got the thing out and broken down today. Dropped it down with a chain hoist. Went pretty easy except for all the anit-vibration mounts were shot. I am also going to replace all the hardware I removed with new.
On the inside it looks just like the pictures in a thread that was linked to...
I got all the drive shafts loose before I ran out of light. Tomorrow I will unhook everything else and I plan to use a chain fall with a 4x4 from the bed to the windshield to drop it out the bottom.
I am thinking at this point the best price I have seen would either get me a rebuilt for $700...
I will verify the linkage catches on the detent ball, if feels like it does. I will also inspect the innards with a mirror to check for chipped teeth.
I will preface this with "I've never seen the inside of it", but if the teeth edges are messed up and causing it to pop out, would it be...
I physically cannot hold up and keep it in gear. Had thought about blocking the fork over into high for the time being but I cant get up the driveway in high... If a lock were viable I could make a new cover that was taller and held the block, but this just seems like a good way to get stranded...
I removed the small cover (~4"x4") with the vent from the top of the xfer case and can see the shaft and fork move when the transfer case lever is moved - it bottoms out on each side of the opening I was hoping to avoid having to drop the xfer case as it looks like a pita.
I will have to read...
My new-to-me '67 35a2 has a transfer case will not stay in high.
I think it may have started when I attempted to back up my driveway in high and it popped out of gear right before I jammed the clutch down to keep the engine from stalling. I backed up in low just fine.
Fast forward a couple...
