Re: Transfer case comes loose 05 2500HD
The case is aluminum so when it gets hot then cold it expands and shrinks letting the hardware back out. Tell him to put some red thread lock on the hardware when he puts it back together. It will keep the hardware from coming out.

DO NOT use loctite on the hardware, and BE SURE that only the correct coated bolts from GM have been used, otherwise it will create a galvanic reaction with the magnesium in the transfercase. This could also be part of his problem with the transfercase coming loose. I have never heard of this being a problem though. Any bad u-joints causing vibrations and possibly loosening it up?
