Swamp Donkey. or CSM Davis. I was playing around with the1138 case this morning and had some questions for ya, if you can give me a shout that would really help 316-305-4331

Well I was thinking of a old school doublethink case I had, but a little deeper on both high and low would be good but since I'm running two cases I have double low gear options 2.72:1 in my stock case and then 1.72:1 in the 1138 case so definitely get low if needed

I wish there was more gearing options for the 1138 so it would be like a 0.83 or so high range, which in turn would deepen the low range

I know I was able to run 45 psi on a regulated supply for the 136 from a deuce and it worked great. Guess I'll have to play with it but don't want to much psi and blow seals and same goes I don't want to little and it not engage fully. Wish a manual was out there for specific information.

I'm going to run a semi truck air brake push pull switch with exhaust port. I ran them before on t136 cases and worked great. How much psi is needed to work the t1138 front output engagement???

I'm going to run onboard air anyway for rear air ride, so that's not an issue. Someone said earlier they did away with the high / low lock and it shifted easier and smoother. Is this because it can hang up and not release fully. This truck is going to be a daily driver so if I can eliminate any...

The way I understood it the air is to engage the front output same as t136 in a survey and the air also engaged a high lock and low lock depending on what gear the case was in. This lock is it the same as old 203 that when lock is engaged it truly locks the front and rear outputs insink with...

Thanks for a lead to look in too. It's going into a custom rig, I'm putting the 1138 with some 5 tons in a 2003 dodge ram 3500 on 43" tires and yes it's going to be street driven daily. The rpm's are perfect with this setup but if I can't get the transfer case air figured out then I have a huge...

Ok guys if looked all over and no luck. I just got a T1138 transfer case and I'm trying to find a pdf file showing the breakdown of the case and the air hook ups and what does what. I counted the hose connections and there is 5 cut off hose connections. Any help at all will be greatly...

Yeah that's the problem that's what happens to most of em scrap pile bound cuz the weight is there.aua Any good places to buy new drums by chance????

I am offering the loaded air brake backing plates for sale of anyone wants them. I'll have 6 loaded air brake backing plates after this weekend for sale 316-305-4331

Well I just did some measuring and talked with several mechanics about this issue and...... The hydraulic brake shoes are 5-1/2" wide and the air brake shoes are 7-3/16" wide leaving 1-11/16 of clearance and the shoes naturally ride on the back side of the drum so the general consensus between...

My axles are already torn down in the garage and im refreshing them. The brakes are off and ready to swap to hydro brakes. I m wanting to keep the axles just swap brakes.
