Rightseatsis' 2001 XJ. 4.0/aw4/231. Stock. Stock everything.
The transfer case is really noisey, the fluid drained out more like mercury than ATF. Finally got a chance to look at it.
1. The output shaft has about 1/2" fore & aft play. The oil slinger is dented in, looks like it got slammed forward by the slip yoke of the driveshaft. When the shaft is pulled rearward and spun, no noise, when shoved forward clacking racket. I have it up on the bench but haven't split the case open yet, nor have I opened a service manual yet. Haven't searched either, I am lazy and just wondering if any of you had ideas.
2. Different Jeep, 231 front output seal is leaking, not bad, not dripping but slinging a spray up onto the underside of the Jeep. Is this seal removable from the outside of the case? Just pull the front yoke and replace seal? Have not opened a service manual yet, haven't searched either, I am lazy and just wondering if any of you had ideas.
Thanks,
Tom
