Question 1

How to remove the Transfer Case on Toyota Tundra?

Accepted Answer

The transfer unit requires removal by first unfastening the transfer shift lever knob before proceeding to remove the 4 screws and shift lever boot retainer together with shift lever boot. You should use snap ring pliers to extract the snap ring before removing the transfer shift lever by pulling it from the "H4" position. After separating the breather hose from the transfer unite the vehicle must be lifted up to drain the transfer oil. The first step for transfer unit removal is to separate the front and rear propeller shafts before uninstalling the dynamic damper through its 2 bolts. The transmission requires support from a transmission jack before you detach its rear bolts along with the four bolts and four nuts that anchor the crossmember. The removal of four bolts separates the engine rear mounting from its connection to the transfer adaptor. Detach the vehicle speed sensor along with transfer detection switch wires. After supporting the transfer with another transmission jack users should remove its eight bolts before pulling it down and toward the rear of the transfer adaptor.

Question 2

How to install the transfer case on Toyota Tundra?

Accepted Answer

You must raise the vehicle and align the transfer case to the adaptor through the 8 bolts while tightening them to 240 kgf-cm (50nm, 17 ft. lbs.) to preserve the seal of the transfer input shaft from the transfer adaptor rear lip. After attaching vehicle speed sensor and transfer detection switch connectors, install the engine rear mounting to the transfer adaptor with 4 bolts which reach a torque specification of 65 Nm (650 kgf-cm, 48 ft. lbs.). Begin installation of the crossmember first with its 4 bolts along with nuts before tightening all components to 72 Nm (740 kgf-cm, 53 ft. lbs.) then add 4 more bolts which are torqued to 18 Nm (185 kgf-cm, 13 ft. lbs.) and transmit jacks should be removed. Install the dynamic damper onto the transfer through 2 bolts with torque setting at 38 Nm (380 kgf-cm, 28 ft. lbs.). Then install the front and rear propeller shafts. The transfer requires a fluid fill using oil grade API GL-4 or GL-5 SAE 75W-90 with 1.0-Liter capacity while torquing the fill plug to 37 Nm. The breather hose needs to be properly connected to the transfer with installation depth reaching 13 mm (0.51 inches) or more. Set the vehicle at its lowest position for snapping the transfer shift lever tip into place while using MP grease on the tip. After pressing down on the transfer shift lever cap slip a snap ring plier beneath the snap ring to install it. Complete the procedure by attaching the shift lever boot and shift lever boot retainer with 4 screws then fastening the transfer shift lever knob. Testing should be conducted during a road journey to verify smooth shifting and check for abnormal noises.
