[QUOTE="FordTechOne, post: 1436441, member: 35543"] Transfer cases are relatively simple mechanical assemblies. They can fail for one of three reasons: [LIST] [*]Manufacturing defect. Typically occurs soon after the vehicle is sold or within 3/36. [*]Lack of maintenance. [*]Abuse/modifications. Manufacturers test components only in their factory configuration; there are too many variables to account for otherwise. A component may pass every torture test in existence but might fail as soon as an untested change is made, such as a lift, increased tire size, suspension geometry modifications, etc. Once a vehicle is modified, all bets are off. That includes oversize tires, because the effect of such a modification on the driveline is not known unless extensive testing is done. And no manufacturer has the time, resources, or budget to test the implications of aftermarket modification. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
