Hey guys, I have removed my transfer case and I am rebuilding it and installing my SYE, and I have the whole case torn down and I have the large retaining ring out but the gear set still won’t budge. Anyone know how to remove it? Thanks
 
Pics would be a big help right now.
 
Pretty sure you remove the front seal retainer and there should be a snap ring on the input shaft. Take that off and the the planetary should come out. I would not waste the time trying to remove the big ring gear.
 
You were correct, I removed the cover, pulled a nightmare snap ring and then pulled it right out. Case has been rebuilt and put back together, now I have to figure out how to shift it into 4wd without a breaker pipe as I have no leverage.
