How to remove a transfer case in a 97 f-250
about $1000
Take out the transfer case and the transmission. It's not too hard, just keep track of the wiring connections, etc.
A 1994 does not have a control module on the transfer case. But it does have a 4x4 Actuator on the front differential.
drop the pan and replace it
NO. If you keep finding yourself ADDING transmission fluid often and you have no leaks but the transfer case is over full then you need to remove the transfer case and replace the seal in the transfer case where it bolts to the rear of the transmission.
Replace the seals.
the viscous is located inside the transfer case... you need to pull the transfer case out and split it open. While you are there you might as well throw a fresh chain and bearings into the transfer case as well.
replace the seal
where is it at
It is located on the transfer case. It'll be on the drivers side of the transfer cas, right next to the front drive shaft, in about the middle of the vehicle! Good luck , it is a hard to get out!
Drop the driveshafts. Remove the transfer case with a transmission jack. it's heavy. Be careful. have fun realigning the spud shaft when replacing.
