Should have checked this when the engine/trans was on the floor. Or at minimum before I sat the cab back on..
Good news it's frozen in 2wd, bad news it's frozen in 2wd.. it cycled before I tore everything down.
Nice it's a mechanical, I'd probably be really annoyed stripped encoders out

Also seams Magna MP1226XHD RPO NQG isn't common

Soak it down with penetrating oil. I like KROIL oil, the oil that kreeps. Haha Or just mix up some acetone and trans fluid.
Seams no one local to me stocks kroil But everyone will order it. 🙄

Looks like I'll have to replace the abs pump module as well. Good thing everything is fresh 🤣

Chasing a few leaks as well. Think mainly brake fluid.

Adam, try a gun shop or local AC shop for the Kroil. I have seen it in both of those places before.

Long road so far and still to go, but she does look good.

I'll call around to a some local.

Woke up this morning there's a puddle of brake fluid under the ABS module
Not thrilled but not unexpected.

Got a leak by the front DS tire, not sure if it's washer fluid or brake fluid yet.

Thanks for the offer Jesse.

From what I've found the manual t-case is magna NP1226? That sound right

Because it 2x whatever the cost of the stuff they normally sell is. I just purchased some this last weekend Ironically

Nice to see you got out side under its own power though.

This is great news🙄
Got the other side,
1 of the 4 bolts holding the module came out,
Hopefully I can get it apart without destroying it

Edit
Got it off with our destroying it too much
