Tranfer case removal
I'm about to change out my transfer chain (97 RR 4.6).
Fairly mechanical, air tools and jacks at hand.
Is there any pics, step-by-step instructions for this?
Exactly which bolts, cables, sensors, order,etc..
I just want to make sure I do not add any more work than needed to do this.
Thanks in advance!

I haven't seen a step by step procedure for this. However, the service manual will really help you visualize how to do it. Download it here: http://green-oval.com/joomla/index.p...d=13&Itemid=29

Thanks for the reply.
I have found no detailed pics about this either. I find it strange that many sites other than Land Rover have step by step instructions. I use e38.org for my other vehicle and it is really impressive w/ it's content.
Any other replies are appreciated and I will look at the website and post my findings.

It is making the "ratcheting sound" under acceleration. Pretty sure that is the culprit. Found the chain itself online in the U.K. (original part #) for 1/2 of the asking in the U.S. Thought I might try this myself since I'm fairly handy.
I couldn't get the Green oval to open. the file was too large. I will have to find some software to open it. Will keep you informed.

Chain replacement
hello fellas. I have removed and opened the transfer case. I will hopefully get some pics up of this operation before long.
I have a question 1st tho:
I have the old chain off, however, the new chain is too tight to go back on the way it came off.
Is there a tensioner or some special tool that I need to put back on the new chain. This is the exact chain replacement w/ the same links. Since the new one is not stretched out, I cannot get it over the 2 gears.
Am I missing something? Has anyone else been through this to give me some insight?
Any help is appreciated.

I knew there had to be something going on. The Rave mentions nothing of a tool for the chain. It made it sound like it is somewhat simple and made me feel like a dumba**.
If anyone knows the name of this tool I would appreciate it. If you do know the tool, is it expensive? Would I be better off loading up the case and taking it to a place that would possibly put on the chain?
Thanks again for all input.
