Removal and Installation

Removal
1. Raise the vehicle, and make sure it is supported securely.





2. Remove the drain plug (A), and drain the automatic transmission fluid (ATF). Reinstall the drain plug with a new sealing washer (B).





3. Make a reference mark (A) across the propeller shaft (B) and the transfer companion flange (C).
4. Separate the propeller shaft from the transfer assembly.





5. Remove the transfer assembly.

Installation
1. Clean the area where the transfer assembly contacts the transmission with solvent or carburetor cleaner, and dry with compressed air. Then apply transmission fluid to the contact areas. When installing the transfer assembly, be sure not to allow dust or other foreign particles to enter the transmission.





2. Install the new O-ring (A) on the transfer housing.
3. Insert the two bolts (B) in the rear of the transfer housing, then install the transfer assembly with the dowel pin (C).





4. Install the propeller shaft (A) to the transfer companion flange (B) by aligning the reference mark (C).
5. Refill the transmission fluid.
6. Start the engine, and run it to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on). Turn the engine off, and cheek the fluid level.
