Evo 8 transfer case removal help!
So I'm doing a motor swap due to a blown motor. I took out the old motor, trans, and transfercase all together. I'm trying to take off the transfer case and it won't budge past a certain point. All bolts have been taken off and the transfer case itself has slid forward about an inch like it going to slide off but that's all it'll go. I'm not sure what else it could be and I've tried looking it up and can't find anything. Any info that points me in the right direction will be greatly appreciatedhttps://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.evo...de79136957.jpg
That's where I'm at. |
did you remove the output shafts?
|
You need to take the stub shaft out of the drivers side of the transmission
|
I've only unbolted the transfer case from the trans and took those two c clips off the ends of the shafts. Other than that I can't get anything to move.

Ok any other way than a slide hammer?

Ok cool I appreciate the help!!

You need a slide hammer, and you make it so it has a bolt on the end to thread into the hole in the shaft. IIRC its M8x1.25

Yes as mentioned slide hammer easy peasy. Forget the thread size and pitch what LGTD sounds right but I know the bolts for the radiator brackets are the correct size as thats what I always end up using.
Im sure you could rig up some sort of puller but a slide hammer works perfect. I use a bolt and a large washer and the slide hammer with those claw things couple good wacks and its out. |
i always rig up a puller from some large tube that fits over the output seal and washers plus a long bolt that goes into the output shaft...

I ran into the same issue when pulling my TCASE, you need a slide hammer to remove the output shaft from the driver side. takes like 10 secs to remove it with a slidehammer.
This is the one I bought but I'm pretty sure you can rent one from your local auto store. Slide Hammer |
Bolt size should be an m8x1.25 iirc. If it doesn't want to come out easily with a slide hammer, consider buying a new shaft, once the splines get a little goobered up they have a hell of a time splining together and compressing the snap ring properly. New shaft is only like $60 too so it's a cheap way to avoid a headache.

Slide Hammer I should just buy one already bc I end up renting one from AZ and while it works fine its got these claw things and it can be annoying at times to keep it on the washer/ bolt head. I can see the puller method Kiki mentioned being handy if youre in a pinch and dont have a slide hammer but have misc hardware. Maybe I'll try that method next time around.:beer: |
