    M135 M211 2 speed transfer case mod

    K so i got the sliding gear cut down a bit more..all looks well..there is enough space now so that the two gears can never be engaged simultaeously..that being said a careful hand will be required as there isnt a huge amount of clearance between hi and lo..so if you were in a hurry and pulled...

    Some pics of the stuff on the back bumper here this week..my life is like a shotgun shell full of rock salt...sprayed some green goodness on the M1028 K30 chassis for my M37 project, built supershackles for same. Picked up a fuller rtf9509A and stuffed it in the shop..picked up a holmes formula...

    I have about 400 Cad plus my time into it so far. A friend is doing the machining on the cuff so it would be higher if he would accept some cash..he enjoys being in on the dark side of restomod lol. If i was building the next case at shop rate i would figure the hours like this. Cleaning and...

    The weak link Im calling this a win also despite being extremely frustrating. Its a win because it fell apart litterally in my hands as i went to slide the rear output shaft through the bearing retainer. This is the cone that the wedge bolts tighten against to load the rear output bearing. The...

    Some time to play in the shop I got to fitting the mainshafts in the tcase tonight. Things look good. I had the machinist remove .25" from the mainshaft sliding gear ( that engages the drive or the pto) and it looks like that was too conservative. The gear is still too long to allow a safe...

    M2211/G749 Parts availability

    If you have a chance to get an M135/211 or variant at a reasonable price in reasonable condition i agree go for it. If transmission parts go the way of the uniorn..repower..it isnt such a bad deal. As the parts dry up people crush ttucks out of ignorance and before you know it there are a...

    I'm getting things in a different order than you would do if you were following this step by step..but it has to happen this way. Theres no way to measure for the relief in the cover untill i have the gears assembled in the case. Once i have those numbers i can remove the shafts (again...

    First pic is looking from outside..clearance is fine..second pic is looking back through the top cover..again lots of clearance..its hard to tell but there is more clearance to the case than the stock gears have so we are good. Third pic is how the cluster all stacks up..nice and tidy. Tomorrow...

    Heres the slot in the shaft where the key goes, the key in place in the shaft, and how it looks when the shaft is keeping the spacer in place. Not a lot of room.. but do-able. You could probably do this with the front bearing removed, but this works fine..just be patient and dont force/beat on...

    The meat of the pudding Okee dokee..so this is the spacer that goes between the back side of the front bearing and the front side of the first gear in the cluster. Its the second hardest part to deal with in reassembling the (former) pto gear cluster on the shaft in the case. Best bet is to...

    Spring ahead.. Well my masters finally gave me a few days off to play in my own shop..i managed to make some new gaskets and start roughing in the new pto cover. Tomorrow ill get onto assembling the gearing and check the fit on those keys i picked up. If all goes well some more pics and i can...

    Yes Sir i did. I cant see any yellow metal what so ever in there..its all steel shafting and bearings. Probably why its such a robust unit.

    Hopefully over christmas ill have a couple of days to get this closer to completion on the inside..i dont think a full tutorial on making a cover is needed but ill include it. At the end maybe the moderators can clean up the thread and it can be a sticky if everything works out.
