Then the one behind the banjo, i loosen it and walk the tc out as i keep loosning it. walk...loosen....walk....loosen then it comes out....line and all. When re-attaching the TC to the tranny....walk tighten....walk tighten....walk tighten and insert the other 5 bolts and tighten all 6 evenly. Ive done about 20 clutches and find the 6speeds no different than 5 speeds. They are all easy, just time consuming to do right. Tiltons suck.......but thats for another thread..... ray

We use an extra cap with a fitting to bleed the diff. We pump compressed air with a blow gun into the top canister and open the nipple at the bottom until the fluid comes out clean. We are putting no more then 15-20 psi and it worked great for my set up.

does that trick work if you have 3 steady light and can some one take a pic of that valve

Kind of a stupid question but I'm preparing to do my clutch in a few weeks and was worried about the ACD.

The method of walking the bolt out without breaking the line makes sense.. except for a question of why is there a banjo on the tcase for this? I thought the center diff was in the main tranny and the tcase had the front diff in it.. so where does the banjo go and how does it remain sealed if its pumping fluid into the main trans housing? Kinda confused and would love a bit more detail on this..

The acd line is on the top of the transfer case. The transfer case and the ACD are the same unit. There is a seperation, but none u need to remove.

I removed the bolt just because it is easier to reach up there and get the bolt out that way.

We used the two person, hold the throttle down while the car was acc. Did it a few times until the fluid came out clear from the bleeder tap.
