So everything takes 80/90. I was reading some threads and saw people talk about some things need to be yellow metal safe for transmission? I just want to make sure I put the right stuff in and not end up having to worry

Anyone recommend fluid for the tcase when I go to refill it? I read some posts on trans, tcase to put 40w non detergent in them and 80/90 in axles. If anyone else uses something different I'm open to hear others opinions

Switching over to air shift might be a project in the future. For what I do with the truck now the current setup is working for me. I also have another deuce that has everything I'm looking for on it so I might just spend the money on that

I havent done anything with the linkage yet only really noticed the issue over the weekend and it's been in the teens so I havent gotten under the truck to see what's all going on with it

Okay I'll try that out and see how that goes hopefully that solves the issue. The truck did sit possibly for 7 years so it might just be gummed up.

That makes my life easier if I dont need to drop the whole unit to pull the front output section off. Also thanks for the adjustment thread I've been looking for one

I'll give that a try and see how that turns out with flushing the unit. Also you said drive the truck unloaded, just without anything in the bed?

Should I try to drain fluid in TC first and see if getting the TC cleaned out helps first before dropping the whole unit and disassembling the sprag? I would like to not make more work for myself than needed. You mentioned a shift rod and adjustment to it. Where is that adjusted from?

Mine works every once in a while. I figured something like once it goes out it goes out and wont work but it kicks in sometimes. If I were to work on it I would probably take it completely down. My sprag unit isnt air engaged

Okay that makes sense. I've taken the front and rear driveshaft off before so it shouldn't be bad now. I would say I'm pretty mechanically inclined I could probably take it out fairly easily. Is there a way to fix the sprague or is it just trashed out? Also the thought of an air shift crossed my...

The truck did sit for a while possibly 7 years before I bought it so that sounds like a good possibility. When you say run through the gears and let idle in gear there is no movement of the truck during this period right? Just hold clutch in and let the fluid work through the gears while...

I have a manual that I found online not sure which one it is but it's pretty informational and I can see what I find about adjusting it

I thought about replacing the tcase before but figured everything with my current truck was fine till I started noticing the front axle would engage only sometimes.

The truck only has 14k miles on it and I find it hard to believe that anything with the tcase is bad already. I saw some posts say there might be an adjustment for the tcase? Dont know much about that or if that could fix the issue

I was driving in the snow today and noticed the front axle would engage in 1st and reverse but not everytime. It seemed like if I turned the wheel a certain way it engaged dont know if that's just by luck or has anything to do with it. I probably engaged 1st and reverse maybe 6 times and reverse...

The truck has a sprag tcase

Hi I own a deuce and was noticing some possible 6x6 issues while off road. Since I live in indiana its snowed recently and I was driving offroad noticed my rear tires spinning but nothing from the front. I noticed the front wheels would engage sometimes but not all the time even if rear wheels...
