I have a mountaineer with a locked up viscous coupling. My tranny shop wanted 700 bucks for the part and 500 bucks to put it in. Suffice it to say, I told them no.
So I'm going to do it myself. I bought a coupling from www.stecouplers.com for 270. I've searched this sight and the web for some directions and/or pictures. I saw a thread in which someone said that it was a matter of opening the case, pulling the chain, sliding out the old VC, and assemble in reverse order. Sounds pretty simple, but I've never opened a transfer case. If anybody has a link to a good write up or has some pictures or insight, I would love to hear it.
