271-D Transfer Case

T case out of a 3500 Cummins truck lots of chain slap

[@cajuncrew7653]

Super awesome video and team!! You guys really break it down great and actually explain the sticking points! Keep up the great videos

[@cpfpv6410]

Your video was the only one I found that showed the hidden front snap ring to get the planetary out… I should have known it was there to keep the front together but everyone else just showed taping on it or pulling it out by hand in their video

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

Wow well thats crazy. Im glad you were able to find the snap ring.

[@AaronRandolph-kw6jx]

Is their a snap ring that’s goes on the yoke?

[@zakaroonetwork777]

Is this Because a Design Flaw issues or Just Lack of Oil Changes?

[@FrederVision]

Clean that box before you bring it in on the bench, otherwise good work.

[@travisyounker5315]

Hey what if the outer synchro ring the 3 tabs on it broke off so you know what would happen

[@cervine22]

What's the cost reman vs rebuild?

[@woog74]

Great video. So if the planetary was wiped out, it could actually cause the truck to not move at all even in 2wd?

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

Yep very possible

[@PhongNguyen-gb3mt]

Can I drive a broken cover on tranfer case then trash it later? I'm thinking about keep putting oil on it every 100 miles.

[@JauSpirit]

How many links does it have, my chain is 48 links but ebay only sell 49 links. I am very confused..thanks

[@robertcherry5604]

what would cause the output shaft to the front diff to have radial play on this transfer case?

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

Bearing failure or bearing has damaged shaft.

[@user-zl2sr5sp6s]

i wish you would have shown how to get the shifter out, i am having to convert a 273 into a 271 and i need to move the 271 shift link over and its not going as easy as i would have though......

[@user-zl2sr5sp6s]

im not that smart, they both had enough crap around the bung i didnt see the socket points, ugh.....i wanted to make it harder than it needed to be. great vid though

[@gagepuffinbarger6939]

Can you switch a fixed yoke to a slip yoke on an nv271d without replacing the output shaft?

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

I'm honestly not sure I'll check my books and see if I have any information on it.

[@OilHist]

How many miles on this transfer case? I just rebuilt mine with 318,000 miles and it was clean as can be. The chain was stretched, so I could have gotten away with a chain and sprockets, but at that mileage, I opted for new bearings and seals. Other internal parts showed no wear.

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

I'd have to look up the ticket to make sure but if my memory is right I believe it had around 240000 on it at time of rebuild

[@OilHist]

@@expressautotransmissiondav4207 Thank you. My rear seal had been leaking for years, so I had to add a quart of oil every 6 months. I guess this, more or less, was like changing the oil over time. The only bad thing I found in mine is that water had gotten into the seal on the shifter shaft and caused some rust and destroyed the outboard shifter shaft bearing. The water didn't get past the first bearing.

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

That's lucky for sure

[@nismosis240sx]

What would cause the shifter to not move into gear? Mine is stuck and only goes into neutral and 4L

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

I would check the shifter ability with it disconnected from tcase first. If it is in the tcase it could be a broken mode fork.

[@OilHist]

Is in normal to have about 1/16” end play in the front output shaft? Snap rings are on both sides of the ball bearing, and on the chain sprocket. No thrust washers involved with this shaft. Thanks.

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

Ok trying to make sure we're on the same page the shaft your describing is the one going to the front driveshaft correct? If so do you have the rear case on?

[@OilHist]

@@expressautotransmissiondav4207 Yes. Shaft to front driveshaft. Everything is together.

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

Ill get my book out tomorrow and check if there's an endplay tolerance for it. It doesn't sound right to me.

[@KIDHLRGarage]

How about a video on converting a 2wd 4l80e to 4x4.....and changing the input shaft on a 4l60 transfer case so it’ll work on the new 4l80 4x4 transmission 😉 I’d watch that video 😁

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

Sounds like we need to do a video just for you.

[@KIDHLRGarage]

@@expressautotransmissiondav4207 or I could just come watch 😁

[@expressautotransmissiondav4207]

I'll let you know was planning on it this Friday

[@user-xg7ix9xr2q]

سلام ارادت خسته نباشید❤️

[@Dieselpwr]

Guiss cleaning the dirt off does not matter much

[@alanmeyers3957]

Lack of maintenance

[@logicalguy488]

Hate to be the devils advocate here but when I do what you did I start with pressure washing it first. Nothing worse than working in oil mixed with metal filings and sand. I know the case gets steam cleaned but why just add disaster possibilities to the equation ?

[@alanmeyers3957]

A lot of reman units are garbage, I say rebuild it.
