    Default DIY Transfer Case Bushings

    I found some helpful information on getting transfer case bushings on this site but.. The problem is that you can not find any OEM size. I was able to find a Jeep bushing that is close enough to modify and work.

    Things you will need;

    1) Bushing SKU# 972278, I purchased from online Partsdude $4.25EA
    2) A 3 inch long piece of pipe, I used Galvanized fences pipe then wall, see
    photos for size
    3) A socket that just fits on the inside of pipe
    4) An adapter that fits into socket and used to go into bushing hole, I used
    a ½ to 3/8 reducer
    5) A shop press or a bottle jack
    6) A piece of wood to cut bushing on

    The pipe will be your cutting tool and you will need to sharpen the edge, so it makes a good cut. I did not have a press, so I used a bottle jack. Took all the stuff I needed and got under my truck. The bushing you purchase will have the correct collar and thickness. The hole is a bit smaller but worked out fine. My old bushing OD size was around 1 ½. I needed something to keep bushing centered and used socket with a reducer on it. Reducer go’s into bushing and socket slide on the inside of you cutting tool (piece of pipe) See photos for sizes.
