    Drained Transfer Case

    Changed the oil on the NP242J Transfer Case and found that there was a lot of gritty bronze in the old oil. I have had no problems with using the case and there are no strange noises. It does stick in 4WD part time sometimes when changing back to 2WD but I get around that by backing up to get it...

    Fan clutch nut

    nut for clutch fan I am surprised to see that your 36mm spanner would not fit the shaft on your clutch fan. I recently ground up an old spanner from a junk shop reducing the width and opening the jaws to exactly 36mm, and this is an exact fit to the nut--puzzle for me. barryh
