Transfer case questions
Well, I put in the transfer case yesterday, by myself I might add! I add that because I could have killed myself! It really helps to have the right tools to do this job, which I don't but I got it done with the help of a cherry picker and floor jack that I decided I had better go get before I broke major bones! The books I got were hard to find the specs on the torques and the descriptions were not what I expected. I will describe what I did and you all can tell me if I am OK. The bracket the attaches to the trany that also has two holes for the transmission support I tightened them to 130 ft/lbs and the small L bracket on the pass side of the frame attached with rubber grommets I attached at 130 also. The major mount at the bottom I mentioned first had the rubber transmission mounts that I had failed to mention. Does that sound OK or are you all confused? Next project is drive shafts the motor and tranny!

Re: Transfer case questions
Those are pretty sizeable bolts so I'm sure your fine. I'm positive the torque was higher than 90 ft/lbs, but I don't remember the exact amount.
