The 'seal' is a bit of a joke, held in place with a cabl ... |

Just a reminder that one of the bolts is shorter otherwise can bind the intermediate gears.
Edit - just a note for when you re assemble.
Thanks! I'll check that. They are all still in the housing ... |

That looks pretty good. I'd clean if thoroughly and reassemble with plenty of molybdenum disulphide grease (CV joint grease) and a new seal.
How many miles has that done?
21k miles. not even run ... |

Splines look OK to me. No slack. Bone dry of course, so I'll put some EP grease in there.
I know the brown dust is worn off metal but there's not much of it.
I did see that there are two splines ... |

| Just wondering if it would be easier to tip the whole assembly up on its end and lift the transfer upwards with the engine crane? |

| There are only six fasteners holding the two boxes together so, assuming you've removed the correct six of course, they should separate. Wiggling and shaking should do no harm (and if that doesn't hel ... |

Don't forget to inspect and lubricate the infamous output adaptor shaft coupling.
I'm thinking of swapping it out for a LOF one piece part. |

Got the CAT out. I took off the lower heat shield and it pretty much came straight out after rotating about 90 degrees.
Didn't need to take off the ARB.
Next issue is the mid silencer box flange ... |

Try to get the LOF kit that comes with a better quality friction plate and bearing/slave cylinder.
