If the transfer case has a clutch pack, carefully check the condition of the clutch plates.
Replace any clutch plates that are worn or burned. Clutch pack clearance is vital to
proper operation and must be carefully checked. Adjust clearance by adding or
subtracting shims or replacing the existing shims with shims of the proper thickness.
2.2.4 Reassembly
The transfer case should be reassembled in the reverse order of disassembly. Before
beginning, replace worn bushings and seals (
Figure 8-32
).
Figure 8-32 - Replacing worn bushings and seals.
Begin reinstalling the parts in the transfer case. The service manual will provide an
exploded view such as the one shown in
Figure 8-33
and, along with sequential
numbering, is very helpful in determining where parts are placed. Take your time and do
it right the first time, especially installing the internal parts. If not, you will just have to
disassemble and reassemble correctly. Reassembly procedures may vary with the
transfer cases you will overhaul. The following procedures will serve as a general guide
to reassembly.
