Well I crawled under my 21 Big Bend Sasquatch with Advanced Transfer case. It currently has 20,000 miles and I have spent a significant portion off-road as I go out about once a week.
Overall it looked pretty good except for a lot of scrapes and rock rash. The rear driveshaft is hecka rusty already (CA here so not sure why).
The stand out issue though was my rear output seal on the T-Case is seeping oil where the rear driveshaft connects. I have an appt set up to get it repaired. It’s not leaking fast but I prefer to get it repaired prior to my KOH trip. I told them what was wrong on the phone but was told their technician will make that determination. I understand that but per experience with Ford, it’s usually a month out for a reservation, at their appt time it will sit for a few hours before it gets seen and then when it finally gets seen they call me and tell me what’s wrong (exactly what I told them was wrong lol). It then usually involves waiting a day or two more for the actual repair of a job that only takes 1-2 hours… anyway, hoping that doesn’t happen this time and I can make KOH with a proper Tcase. Seeping tcase is pretty bad to have at 20k miles IMO but at least that’s my only bigger issue so far compared to other issues I’ve seen here.
