  11. Remove the transfer case.
    WARNING
    A new transfer case driven gear seal must be installed whenever the intermediate shaft or transfer case is removed from the vehicle.


    NOTE
    If necessary, replace the right differential fluid seal.

  12. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Observe the following torques:
