So the tailshaft housing is the lift point for the transfer
case or is the case lifted by the gearcase on the right
side (maybe twisting the whole assembly)? I can't lift the
tailshaft housing with the crossmember in place, so it seems
logical that the jack be placed on the gearcase to lift it.
I may very well drill out the drain plug; that's a good idea.
I plan to replace it anyway with an allen bolt. Anybody
know what size that drain bolt is?
