Hey all, I've been hunting for the best deal, on the best transfer case I can find, for my truck. B&M Military Surplus states that they have several "new and rebuilt" units for a price that I can stomach. I've found references to them in the archives, but nothing stating their trustworthiness...

US6x4/Toby, Yeah, the manual is talking more about "in/out" not "up/down" but that was the closest information I could find. I have up/down/all-around movement, plus leakage. I didn't check in/out movement. Toby, you did an incredible job considering that you were working by feel, without the...

Toby, I've always been decent with engines but not so great with transmissions and transfer cases. The last transmission I had apart, was a 3 speed for an old Ford F-100. But, I digress. I think the bearing is blown. I can't see how the bearing could just fall so grossly out of adjustment...

Hey Toby, I've already done the suggestions in your first paragraph. The rear output shaft can be moved around by hand, and there is a new leak from the rear output shaft seal. It looks like it ate the rear output shaft bearing. I know it can repaired/replaced, but I don't think you can just...

Hey Toby, I think I'm having a similar issue. Did you actually fix this problem?

As I am adding to this old thread, you all can tell that I have run my query though the search engine. Nearly all transfer case threads that I can find, are for the 939 series trucks with a smattering of deuce and a half questions. My question is related to the M809 series- Here's what...

Awesome, thanks for the tips. That'll reduce the amount of profanity required.

The main battery switch is off when it does this? I've never heard of this before. Did a previous owner add some aftermarket gizmo that is tucked away somewhere?

Wow, you don't fool around. I used to ham. KA1ZDV, but I let it lapse.

I gots mines! It arrived yesterday, it's quality work. Looking forward to mounting it on my floor jack.

I have the complete set of belts, hoses and water pump gasket needed for a coolant flush and refresh of those parts. One of my axle boots recently split, so I'm taking this as an omen that I should dive into the steering axle earlier than planned to inspect brakes, re-pack bearings, inspect...

Meanwhile, your cell phone is going off in your pocket and you can't reach it... ;)

I won't offer an opinion on which is "best" but I'll offer the reasons for my choice: I drove M35A2 and A3 and 939 series trucks in the Navy. After having an Allison transmission pack it up on US301 on a nearly-new truck, and watching all the CTIS fail on my unit's trucks, I decided that I...

Gadzooks, that is one clean interior. I ran the part # through Google. No one seems to have any remaining stock. Ah well.

That's it! Ok, I'm not crazy. Will, do you have any of them left? I can drive without it, but it would be nice to have one.

Thanks, I'll take a look. If it doesn't work, I've seen some kludges during my Google searches that will probably work. They involve chain, bolts, wood and a small bottle or screw jack.

This is a great post and applicable to 5 tons as well.

Good to hear that Eastern made it right.

Ah, these are great. Thanks!

Sure, there are lots of MVs in Maryland. Many of them are 2.5 tons which only need an ordinary Class C license that everyone has. I dunno what the 5 ton people are doing. My truck, and air brakes aren't really the issue here. The issue is, I don't want a commercial license. I don't want to...
