  • Hello everyone and Merry Christmas to you. This video is about a transfer case hack that I have wanted for years. Now Elizabeth will have the option of doing burnouts with the front of the truck ;-} I am really excited to try this mod out . Consider supporting Steve Summers UA-cam channel

    That reminded my of a story that is funny now but could have been a disaster. I used to have to pull the transmission out of my 62' Chevy on a regular basis when I first started driving. Fast forward a couple of years, I was in my mid twenties and building my house. The contractor was going away for the weekend and he asked me if I would change out the clutch on his mason dump truck. I said not problem. I went to his shop and worked in his garage, I removed the power take of from the trans and slid under the transmission just like I did on the Chevy. I pulled the trans out and it dropped down on my chest just like my old Chevy 3 speed. The only problem was that is was about 3 times the weight of what I was expecting. I was stuck under the truck, working all alone, with the trans sitting on my chest and I could not move. I finally maneuvered around enough that I was able to roll the trans off onto the floor and escape. Needless to say I used a trans jack to put it back in. Enjoyed the video. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Looking forward to next weeks video.

      Same thing happened to a buddies brother! He was used to 3 speed transmissions and pulled the cast iron 4 speed out of his 68 Roadrunner.
      He got Trans off himself as well, but was scared for a bit.

    Did you by chance install that case adapter seal backwards? It looked like the lip was out on the one you removed but you installed the replacement with the lip in. I've installed a few twin stick kits, that one is very nice. Folks don't think the FWD item is anything good, but it can make maneuvering around things easier if the front is pulling while you steer and don't have the rear end trying to push as well. Want an odd test, On pretty much every one of them that I've installed if you drive it with only the front engaged they get better MPG!

    • @infoanorexic
      @infoanorexic 2 роки тому +3

      on mine, the seal worked both directions, I'd imagine it's the same on his. on older cases, or as an option on the newer models, you used two seals installed facing each other.

    Being a 60's baby, I grew up around old jeeps, Dodges and other four wheel drive vehicles that had twin sticks and no lock out hubs. I always liked the idea you could simply throw the box in to low for example to back up a steep ramp or hill or ease a heavy trailer into a tight spot with out burning up the clutch or having the 4WD pushing you around on hard ground and hampering maneuverability . I can see the case for front wheel drive only option. Good mod if you ask me.

    My cousin ( a little guy) used to have a 3/4 Chevy that he pulled a too heavy goose neck with. He went through several clutches before he found one that would hold up. He got quite good at dropping out the tranny and transfer case by himself and putting them back in. :) He didn't have a garage or concrete floor either.

    Merry Christmas, Steve & Family. I appreciate the look at that kit. I've considered doing something similar on my old Dodge. Not to run front only, without the rear, but to be able to use low range and leave the entire front axle system disengaged. But now, after the 52" stretch to the wheel base, front only pull with individual rear brakes (like the rock crawlers have) doesn't sound like a bad idea. It steers worse than an army truck.
    I rebuilt that case back in ... well, a long time ago. I don't remember it having the steel plug. Hard rubber, I think. They can deteriorate and cause it to weep oil. Replacements did not come with the bearing kit. The big service jack I used had a transmission cradle available for it. I got it primarily for that job, and have used it on others since. I highly recommend getting or building one. It doesn't really make it any easier (at least in my experience) but it can make it a lot safer.

    • @garymallard4699
      @garymallard4699 2 роки тому +2

      yeah he needs a proper transmission adaptor for his floor jack...you can buy them cheap nowadays..but all you need is a flat plate and some pipe to fit your shoe on jack ...and then you can chain it/or strap it securely....and make some brackets and different holding supports as you need ...for each use....SAFETY...it can fall off a small shoe in a microsecond and hurt you... when working alone it pays for the cost everytime you manhandle some transfer case or transmission...and you'll wonder why you never had it before ...i used mine to handle my Jeep fuel tank too...sure made it easy..i used some wood to keep it steady and straps ...what a simple job taking it off and down and then back up and on....half full of gas...
