On 10/16/07 I picked up the engine from the repair shop after having the watercooled transfer case rebuilt. This was a major expense. I am pleased to have it back on the road. It is with regret that the cause of this failure was my fault but nothing could be done about it cause I had no knowledge of the transfer case being watercooled. It was solely cooled by water off of the pump. If I had knowledge of it being watercooled their was still no way to drain it so it was setup for FAILURE from day one. The cause of this is that she is exposed to the winter temperature last winterand with no drain the oil was displaced by the water off of the pump. The transfercase is no longer water cooled so this failure will never happen again. THANK YOU!
