I am in desprate need of a transfer case to fit the sierra i just got its a 1985 LWB tray back the vin reads SJ40T-120 and is stamped F10A how ever it has a toyota 5k motor and box, the transfer that is in it has a switch on the side, it came with a another transfer that doesnt have the switch on the side but that doesnt fit the flanges are all a different size. I am in the ACT and i really need to get it running again can anybody help?

kind Regards Alan

PS the transfer that doesnt have the switch appeares to be working fine and am happy to sell,swap anyone its it helps them.

whats wrong with the transfer case you have in it. you should beable to get rebuilt bearings and seals for the switch type one..

other wise any 1.3 sierra one will fit also (with flanges swapped)but will have the wrong gearing.

the bearings are shagged i couldnt be bothered rebuilding it as i dont have the time, what did the ones without the switch come out in, and what is the difference between the one i have and the others with the switch?

Regards Alan.

the one you have with a switch are highly sort after by peoiple wanting to regear 1.3 sierras as they are lower geared.

the switchless one you have is from an earlier model 1 litre sierra probably and they are slightly lower again i believe, but wont fit in easily.

your looking at $200-$300 to buy another 1 litre switch transfer case.

Can't the flanges be swapped over?

[tanshi]

not on the switchless cases they cant no

Is this lwb black by any chance..?

Reported as a gbox noise?

[AL85LWB]

Haha yeah it is!!! what can you tell me about the POS!!

[BlueSuzy]

I can tell you i was going to come from syd to buy it, then changed my mind.

Nice to know i made then right decision.

It was forsale on here.

[AL85LWB]

yeah it got sold on here to a guy that had it for about a month, but dont think he had the cash or knowledge to fix it, i picked it up for pretty cheap, the gear box was shagged so i put a new clutch and gearbox in it and ordered a transfer rebuild kit yesterday so ill do that this weekend and should have it running by monday, its only a cheap basher while i build my comp truck then ill use the diffs out the the hilux and change to a 1.6efi but until then ill just wheel it as it is.

Cheers Alan.
