Its way too long to post on evom. I would have made at least 5 post to fit it all


So I changed my tranny, tcase and rear diff oil and drove around for 2 miles all good. Park the car.

A few days pass, thought about driving the car today, but just peeked under before hand and there is a puddle.

I must have forgot to tighten something or lost a washer. It looks to be t-case, but im not climbing under my car on hot blacktop to find out.

So thats about it, not very interesting

one of the crush washers could have needed replacing. I had a small leak last time I replaced my transfer-case fluid.

^ that sucks... but at least you caught it before you drove the car too much and destroyed the TC.

I got my Deka battery yesterday and I'm now trying to figure out the best way to install it. its shorter and wider than my PC680, so the buschur battery tray I have doesn't work. I'm back to using the stock tray, but I need to figure out a solution for clamping teh battery down...

they didn't look like crush washers, just a standard flat washer if I remember right, but whatever it is Im sure I can figure it out

Its just too hot to be out all day working and then climb under my car after work to spill oil all over myself. I wait till it cools down to low 90s

Let me know how that goes. I was thinking of picking up one of those batteries and using the stock battery tray or building my own.

I wish I had taken the battery from my miata before i sold it.

They aren't crush washers like the oil drain plug. However they are pretty soft and squish a bit when you torque them.

Gotcha When you said crush washers the first thing that came to mind was oil drain plug.

I might have just forgot one. I will CSI it some day soon and report back
