2. On transfer case models MTC-4208X/XP and MTC-4210X/
XP, remove the PTO cover or PTO, whichever applies. Use a 3”
socket to remove the large retaining nut and washer from the
rear half of the input shaft. Use a yoke tool on the input shaft
yoke to prevent the shaft from rotating while removing the
retaining nut.
If the input shaft retaining nut cannot be removed, it will not
be possible to remove the front input shaft before opening the
housing. Skip this procedure.
NOTE:
The MTC-4213X has a split shaft design. It is only
necessary to remove the front half of the input shaft during
disassembly. The rear half of the input shaft is pressed into
the rear case half and cannot be removed until after the
transfer case halves are separated.
3. On transfer case models MTC-4208XL/XLEV/XLEC and
MTC-4210XL/XLEV/XLEC, use a 3” socket to remove the large
retaining nut and washer from the rear half of the input shaft.
Use a yoke tool on the input shaft yoke to prevent the shaft
from rotating when removing the retaining nut.
If the input shaft retaining nut cannot be removed, it will not
be possible to remove the front input shaft before opening the
housing. Skip this procedure.
4. Remove the capscrews securing the input bearing cage and
internal pump assembly, if equipped.
