| Post subject: | Sierra tcase rebuild |
has anyone bought a rebuild kit for their sierra tcase lately? took mine for a spin tonight, and its noisey as crap (ask mandy  )......so will have to pull it out to rebuild it (  only new part i didnt rebuild before installation).
my vit rebuild kit was $300 or something like that, so hopin not that much 
or does anyone have a 1l tcase that's in good, useable nick?? |

u sure thats the right price? how many bearings are there in the case? 10 max?
zukichick- i'd be interested, but the postage would be a killer to brisbane |

up to 60km it was ok then on the highway it was cron. if its there when u rev it it could be a clutch bearing |

mine starts about 30ish (no speedo). quiet up till then, so dont think its the clutch (it was fine before the rebuild too) |

i dont get what you're asking? if you mean, is it the case that the front tailshaft comes out of, then yeah, it is will get some lucas tomorrow and give it a try (easier an cheaper than pullin the thing out if it quietens it down)

1 litre cases do whine a bit, maybe yours is transmitting the noise through that monster mount youve made? but yeah only under power sounds like there too much endplay in it |

could only get morleys, no lucas in stock (well, a 5 litre bottle was it). just wondering how much a stock sierra case holds (oil) before i mix this in tonight |
|
| Author: | royce [ Thu Jul 27, 2006 8:32 pm ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Sierra tcase rebuild |
bit over a litre I think |
|
| Author: | oscar [ Thu Jul 27, 2006 10:07 pm ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Sierra tcase rebuild |

Yes 5lts may be a big bollte but the Lucus is great stuff and can be used in anything. Money well spent. I have used it in Engines, diffs etc and still use it from time to time. Morey's is just as good. |

i didnt buy the 5 litre bottle of lucas, got the 1l of morleys its seems to have worked. only drove it a few hundred metres (road was still too busy to be driving round with no plates, rego sticker, or mudflaps  ), but was certainly quieter, and will probably get a bit quieter once it spreads around. i can see why it shuts it up, the stuff is like honey
