I done the 4.16 t-case by myself, if you have some doubt, pls do not hesitate to ask me.

Why did you buy the 4:1 when they have a 5.81:1 set available ?

Tonka_sam · 06-07-2002, 05:58 PM

Can you install the gears without replacing all the bearings?

Ive got a good working case. and dont want to spend the money right now. thanx CHUCK

I'm guessing he has 445 reasons for that one.

Yea you can use the old bearings.... You need a gear puller to do the install to get the bearings off the shafts.. Other than that its not to hard, just be real careful theres a thrust washer in there and some bearings in the shifting mechanisme.... take apart slow and pay attention
