  • Before I started this job I looked all over UA-cam for a video on how to do it. I couldn't find one so I made this video. Service manuals can be found at roadranger.com, products, pick your model and then choose literature.
    This initial problem was hard grinding when shifting between low and high range. Rolling in neutral and shift low to high produced gear clash.
    Music by Eric Van Skyhawk.

    There is another way to do that, what we do is drop the whole unit out of the truck witch makes it easier to work on, then we pop the cover and if we are doing the auxiliary we put the unit on a stand upside down and pull the auxiliary off with a crane that way, and then we build the auxiliary right in the main box after we clean it all up

    great video, tough to please everyone. You try to help and get criticized, some from people that have next to no lives...some from people that have little work experience, I thought it was a great example of how its done. Good job.

    Always check the weld on the countershafts I have found a lot of them with cracks in them.

    needs 2 things, 1st eaton had a snapring groove issue with the mainshaft, needs a new shaft. was cause of failure, 2nd it need a range shift yoke, beveled bore fo shaft caused snapring failure. probably also needs shift bar housing upgrade due to direct overdrive switch pin boss worn.

    Genuine Eaton gears and shafts etc are machined to very fine tolerances and hardened to the core. As for Aftermarket , Who knows?

    Hey this is a great video with a great amount of knowledge but I just have to say that before doing any kind of welding near a transmission don't you think that it would be wise to cover it up well with some clean shop rags?, all kinds of flying weld splatter was landing on top of the outer bearings since no covers were on them and also bouncing up around the bottom main gears, I think that if I was to make a custom bracket like you did I would of clamped the steel parts together and removed them from the trans. then welded them over away from the clean open transmission just to avoid flying metal bits from sticking to the exposed gears/bearings. Just saying but otherwise you do fine work and this is a great video, thank you.

    Awesome video, i have just fitted the auxiliary box to the main box on an 18 speed and when the output shaft yoke nut is tight the output shaft is hard to spin and the range change doesn't work. (But range change works when auxiliary box is by its self) have you come across this before? Im about to tear my hair out. Thanks

    you should have put the rear cs bearing cups in before you installed your straps, the cs will line up much better when you slide the assembly into the main box.

    Do you know if the Eaton Fuller 8LL has to have its top cover removed to pull the back box? I need to replace the synchroniser as well.

  • @pallee3971
    @pallee3971 10 років тому +1

    um where to start . 313 dollars sounds cheap but I did notice you were using eurocrombi parts not genuine. 1 ,the seal you used comes with two gaskets and must be matched to the speedometer housing . 2 im glad to see that you finnaly put a new nut on the yoke but forgot to include it in the pricing.3 the round plug on the back of the case where the range bar is, falls out a lot over time so they make a plug retainer for that .4 I hope you shimed the countershafts ,also {not included in the price } ALL tapered bearing must be shimmed or adjusted to set the endplay.but overall a good vid .

      Customer wanted it done on the cheap. I've been a truck mechanic for the past 34 years, I know what I'm looking at when it comes to endplay and bearing load. The truck has been running everyday for the past 16 months without any issues.

  • @namentatic4978
    @namentatic4978 7 років тому

    Not bad presentation. Output yoke needs to be torqued at 600 ftlb. Never use the tire gun to install it on. You can use it to remove yoke nut off, but never for installation. Yoke nut needs to be installed new every time when removed. Good job.
