Transfer case rebuilding tutorial

[frankendat]

Good day,

Ratsun has been acting odd these past few. I'm neither sure this will post nor confident, I will be notified if anyone responds.

I seek an additional step by step guide or video, for rebuilding a Datsun/Nissan 4wd drive transfer case. The divorced transfer case found in 1984-1986 720's with a Z24, Z24S, or Z24i. It is very likely, the same transfer case was employed in early (1986.5/1987) D21's, but I have not confirmed.

So far, youtube and google have let me down for rebuilding a Nissan 720 transfer case, removing and replacing information is abundant.

I have the service manual, which lays it out and progress will continue, just looking for options. The transfer case rebuild kit came without instructions.

The T 100 divorced transfer case was used on all '80-'86.5 720 trucks with the L20B, Z22 and Z24 engines.

 

The next gen truck D21 Hardbody and WD21 Pathfinder used a 71C transmission with an integral transfer case on the rear of it.

Thank you for squaring me away on the case differences, do you know of a "T-100 rebuild for Dummies" Youtube, DVD, or book. The shop manual has the information, but step by steps are nice.

No idea at all.

Rebuild kits were available the last time I looked but it is best if you could pick up a spare for a rebuild. Once you pull it apart you can pull all the numbers off the seals and bearings and order new Japanese rather than get whatever comes in the "kit". I usually get screwed with substandard parts in kits.

I bought my 5 speed and 2 transfer cases...previous owner need some from one..some from the other but will make 1 out of the 2.  Will have to order a seal kit from the states as nothing found locally down under.

 

Now a service manual would be awesome.
