JP 90 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Next on my list is a gearbox change. i want to recon my LT77. I’ve never removed one before. The engine and box are out so access not a problem. I need to split it from the engine and trans. aside from removing all the bolts are there any pitfalls I need to be aware of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just pulled a LT77 off a Transfer box recently it had been worked quite hard and the female splines on the input gear had worn, quite badly, in - which ultimetly cause it lock it onto the output shaft of the gearbox - quite interesting really, one of the issues of a non cross drilled input gear. So learning point - if it appears stuck, back off on the gear box, or the transfer box output which might effectively help unlock the wear issue, as its only usually on the main drive direction. I had to jury rig up a puller to get it freed off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigi_H Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 At the LT77 it is really hard to get the collar off the output shaft. You will need the appropriate tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
