Re: My Winter Upgrades
Thanks Jet.
My newest problem is a stupid problem to even have, but is kicking my butt. I can NOT get the Xfer Case fill plug out. I finally had to resort to vise grips, and still nothing. It's soaking in PB Blaster now, sucks...

Re: My Winter Upgrades
I had already removed the entire Transfer Case to be able to get my oil pan off. It's empty.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
Try hitting that fill plug with a hammer a handful of times..right on the face of the plug. This happens a lot with trannies and diffs and such, and that's what i do at work to remove them.

Re: My Winter Upgrades
Plug is out. XFR Case is filled. It think she's ready to rock! Now I just need MNDOT to not salt the roads for awhile so I can just take it on a nice slow test drive around the block and make sure the speedometer works again

Re: My Winter Upgrades
Why not just put it up on jackstands so that all the tires are off the ground, put it in gear and see if the speedo works?

Re: My Winter Upgrades
Put it up completely on jack stands and "drove around" in first gear with all the wheels off the ground. Speedometer works. I'm thinking maybe the CAS got wet in the car wash last fall which somehow caused the RPM gauge to bounce all over. I wonder if a CAS not putting out the correct signal could cause that, and could also maybe somehow have caused the carnage that took place moments there after.
