Dreaded Transfer case rub and skid plate, Dmax

(1/2) > >>

JR:
Yep, I got it at around 95 K. Thought it was the rear seal at first and talked to Nate about.

Since this IS an issue with looks like pre 07 Dmaxs, what repairs have you guys used?

Right now I did the epoxy fix to hold me for a few more weeks and filled her with 5/30 synthetic.

I also plan to ad to the skid plate that stops just past the tcase that may save it once if going forward, but will do no good otherwise.

Flyin6:
There's a kit...

Nate, you have this?

Nate:
JR, here is the link to MA.  i know it comes up as an LBZ but just maneuver to what year is yours.  this kit comes with step by step inst on how to do this.  i would also recommend getting the aftermarket magnetic plugs as well.

also, if you already have a hole in the case you will need to get a case half from wither the dealer or the junk yard (which might be cheapest).

JR:
Oh ya, I know about the kit and the fix. Know I don't have long in this condition but the fluid loose has stopped with the JB as I did have a hole.

Do you think the plate or the whole new pump plate, and which case? There is both alum and the alloy that is stock, both are around 2 bills.

I've had the kit for months now and haven't had time to put it in. I'm up to 224,000 miles hoping mine can hold out a little longer
