I have already changed out the transfer case to air select. I'm in the process of getting the trans assembled with the 5th gear mod. Get the lock out hubs on. I got a 24v to 12v converter to supply the turbo boost gage and pyrometers gage.
I hope to get all this done this week end if the rain...
I received my AVM hubs this week and I have a question. Do I need to grease the inside of the Hubs before I install them? I looked around and couldn't find anything said about Itami it doesn't say in the instructions.
Removed the transmission
I removed the trans today. Got it disassembled and found second gear burned up. I looked on Memphis Equipment and didn't see where they had them. Anyone know where to get a modified second gear?
That's probably not a bad idea. If I see any ware on 2nd when I get it apart I'll go ahead and get a new gear but if it looks ok, I have access to a mill and will try to modify it my self. Worst case I have to buy one anyway.
I received the 5th gear kit today. I will be removing the trans over the weekend. Thank you Tom for the fast shipping. Can't wait to get it installed. :clinto:
Thank you for the support. I have been studying the instructions so it looks pretty straight forward. I ordered a pyrometer and turbo boost gage also so I can turn up the fuel to the desired setting. I'm going to order locking hubs after I do some more research before I make a purchase.
Thanks. I slid a piece of 1 1/2, .120 wall pipe out the back window and out the front. I used a one and a half ton ratcheting chain hoist and connected to the first bolt next to the top plate. I lowered the transfer case down onto an atv jack and rolled it right out. The atv jack worked really...
Well I finished the transfer case change out. Removed the old sprag case and installed the air lock case. Went real smooth. I used a pto switch for the actuator and it turned out very well. Now I need to try it out in some mud.
