Hey Hey -
I recently swapped the 18 guts in a 20 case and have put the whole thing together and hung it off the 465 (via the Novak adapter).
This is wierd: if I tighten either the front or rear bolt anywhere past 60lb-ft, the shaft(s) won't free rotate. Thought I was squishing seals, and it seems like that because the torsional resistance increases with torque, but visual inspection doesn't show any damage.
You think I am causing the t-case to bind up in some way? I can switch the shaft into neutral even when its tight (twin stick) Any input is welcome, and thanks
