Transfer Case Bolts
Anyone know off the top of their head what size bolts I need to mate up the transfer case to the end of the transmission?

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
Not sure, but consider using studs with nuts instead. The t-case is kind of the pain to align otherwise, especially if you're installing it solo.

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
Really? Wow, I never thought of that. It is kind of a bear to wrestle around underneath the Bronco. Good idea, thanks!

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
Don't thank me, I stole it from Viper. Will be doing this to my rig after I rebuild my spare D20.

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
Now, I'll be doing something like that tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for the tip, just in time. It is not easy to balance that thing on a jack and get everything lined up, especially alone.

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
T-cases are difficult at best to install. Their center of gravity is just not conducive to wiggling it around without the proper equipment. SO anything you can do to help the process is money and time well spent. Wish I knew the size, but I do not.

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
Aren't they 3/8-16?

Re: Transfer Case Bolts
I checked mine and they're certainly 3/8-16. I'm switching mine out for studs when I put the t-case back in.
