I really enjoyed part one, and have been looking forward to part two. Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos.

Very nice video, well thought out, descriptive, helpful tips. I will be doing a Dana 300 very soon. Thank you

You are the best gearbox specelist in the world👍brilliant job 👌

You have a beautifully delicate touch on these things and amazing patience!

Thanks Paul! I have an 84 jeep CJ7 with this exact transfer case. I followed your steps and it ended up coming out great! I can’t wait to see how it runs. Keep the good vids coming!

I know you make it look effortless but I can tell you spend a lot of time setting up your shots and making the video smooth. I am willing to bet you might even write a script. Great Job!

Love your work. Great description and methodology. Pulled my Scout Dana 300 yesterday and it's on the bench waiting. Without such a clear step-by-step walk through, I'd be much more apprehensive to my next few days. Thanks for sharing and putting the effort in!

awesome video. you solved my PO installation errors they had shims in wrong place on output shaft between yoke and bearing. you showed me the shims go between the bearing and shoulder where it seats. makes perfect sense now. Thank you

One of the best instructional and informative videos that I have watched on Utube. Great job! Getting ready to begin the rebuild and install for the Dana 300 in my IH 800A

Great video. It helped me in getting ready to tackle a NP-233 this spring. Thanks!

when I took off my transfer case I drilled a hunk of plywood and bolted it to the case and put it in the vice ,, but I was only cleaning it out and fixing oil leaks .. and yes they are very heavy .. I did my on the floor in my garage under my CJ7 ,, need to get a floor jack tranny jack so when I pull it again ..if it was a flat lift easy but it has to be at a angle ,, so a floor jack is hard to use .. Great video Paul .. thankyou for all the great info and tips

I've had similar issues pulling and installing transfer cases in the driveway. Got a bit smarter this last time. using a 10" 1x6, I screwed a vertical board on one side (catches the end of the TC) and a 2x4 laid flat screwed down on the other. The 2x4 is for the rise of the bottom. In other words, I built a cradle. Using a floor jack on the now-flat 1x6, I easily pulled the TC back and down. Granted, I still had to balance it. But it worked like a charm. May get a good center of gravity and find some way to screw the 1x6 to the floor jack. My days of dead-lifting transfer cases by myself have long passed.

Undeniably one of the best instructors on KZread for transmission work. I followed this video set for the Dana 300 in my Jeep Scrambler and it came out perfect. I appreciate your ability to articulate in detail to make this task a cinch. Thanks again, great work!

Great video series. Already used your rebuild videos for my T176. Interesting thing here. I'm currently waiting for input shaft shims for my Dana 300. Looks like who ever was in my transfer case prior to me never put any shims on the input shaft assembly. I assembled mine and had .012-.013 of play. And they sent it that way.

Great video Paul, very informative. I'm currently in the process of putting a Scout D300 behind a T-19 wide ratio 4 speed, and the Scout Dana 300's are slightly different than the Jeep D300's. There's no dedicated input carrier, the drive gear is simply mounted to the output shaft of the transmission and bolted down, then mated with the transfer case. I'm a little worried as my drive gear got some bad rust on it over the years while it was sitting, and the teeth are somewhat pitted, and as far as I know, are pretty much "unobtanium". It took me four years of searching to find the one I did (my D300 came with a drive gear for an automatic tranny.) So I expect I'm stuck with using it. I did clean off the gears as much as I could, including using a bit of wet/dry sandpaper to get the worst of the pitting down. I figure I'll run it, and then change the oil after 100 miles or so to remove any impurities that may have worked loose.

Have you tried Advance Adapters?

you can get Indian head shellac from auto zone for $4.99 (either locally or online). I prefer something far rarer called GM Gasket maker that's much more expensive (sadly) but i like to use for water jacket bolts that can leak. (Great music btw). Edit: For what it's worth, those of us who work on auto transmissions use the same lube. We use the blue for lubing and the green for holding spacers and such. We don't use the red or the yellow because if they leak you don't know if you have a leak (oil or transmission fluid) somewhere. :)

Any idea why on a manual transmission the 1st and 2nd gears enter not so easily on cold days, like 0 C and when it warms up the gears enter smoothly? Bad syncros or is it the oil?

Fantastic video series, you have a great way of explaining, showing and executing this rebuild. Question from a novice: Is it OK to use anaerobic gel with gaskets? I have found discord on various websites. Some say it needs metal to metal and no air? Your opinion? Thank you

How did you get the tail shaft back apart (around minute 27:00)? Did you press against the big gear in a press and push the shaft through?

Awesome

Thanks again, Paul, for letting me drop by your shop while you finished this transfer case. I hope I didn't get in your way. 😎 Another super job, Paul; I really enjoyed watching. Is the music at 40:00 and 48:00 from your group? It was a nice subtle touch and fit well.

Hey Paul, great video ! I have a Dana 300 Transfer Case in my 1983 Jeep Scrambler CJ8 which I have already rebuilt. Do you recommend using a full synthetic oil in them { transfer cases } ? Im a Hugh fan of the Amsoil full synthetic's.

Good video sar

You have probably covered this elsewhere but it seems you prefer anaerobic gel over RTV. Rationale? Thanks for the great videos

A. Regular, what does that mean? Anyway, while rebuilding my Dana 300 I discovered that the "end Cap" was broken. End cap is the term you used when referring to the part that slides over the rails and holds the rail seals in place. Is there a part number or another description? I can't find it on a parts diagram.

Thank you for this upload , god bless

Seems like the input shaft shims are hit or miss , some have them some dont , i am replacing my input shaft due to spline damage, the old shaft had no shims, and 0.013 endplay , i am the original owner and nobody has ever been in the 300 before and only have 68k miles on it. With my new advance adapters shaft installed with a new bearing its 0.012 endplay , when questioned Advance adapter said it was good to go at 0.012 and they never shim there dana 300 inputs upon assembly . Any thoughts paul ? . Excellent video series by the way .

Video so long but very good. I like

I'm having some trouble getting my shift rails back in to the shift forks they came out pretty rough and I cant get them to go in now I even took a fork out of the case and tried to get the rail in on the bench and it will not go in do these require some tapping or should they just slide in? Maybe polish them up alittle or heat the fork?

@GearBoxVideo

Clean the rail up and take notice of high spots. Do not heat anything. Think it thru

I thought i needed more shims on the output, it took me a few tries to get the proper preload and nut torque spec, but it worked out eventually, maybe a race wasn't seated completely??

Great vid!! Thank u!! Jus bought a 82 cj5, the forks r stuck, i took drain plate off and there was barely enough oil to lube teeth on gears, plus i found half of a very thin round metal shim or bearing seal. Cant find the other half, but, gears and everything looks great, despite the item. Magnetic drain plug had just a little bit of metal, minor, thoughts?

I gotta rebuild mine, it actually has over a million miles on it

I stuck around and did a full watch on part 2. On my '84 Jeep CJ7 the transmission that is coupled to this Dana 300 transfer case the shift lever slips past the rails and pops out of place so it locks into 4th gear. I bought new retaining parts to hold the shift lever down better. but it still happens. Looking at the tang on the shift lever doesn't show any wear. Do I need to do some work on the rails? I think it is a Tremec T-176 if I am not mistaken

I think this is the transfer case used in my 1971 Bronco. If it is, I iteraly beat the Hell out of it off road and never had troubles with it. I ripped rear gears and fronts, but never this TC.
