GM's GETRAG 790 Transfer Case: Disassemble & Reseal

If you own a AWD Chevy Traverse, Equinox, Terrain, Buick Enclave or GMC Acadia then you more than likely have one of these gear boxes in your vehicle. When you see it leaking around the passenger side CV axle you might think it is an easy job. Not in this "case." The entire t-case needs to be split in order to install the seals. Just time consuming is all.

*Something went wrong when I tried to publish this video earlier. Sorry about that. Here is my second attempt.* 🤷‍♂ Now, before I get to many complaints about not showing the removal and install let me explain. My mouth hurts, my tongue hurts and it is very difficult to talk at this moment. I wanted to show you but try and keep it shorter so this is what you got. Until I heal up and learn how to speak again you'll have to bear with me in the videos. Cheers, Eric O.

@denniswright8949 Год назад

I wore an appliance like that when I was getting my teeth straightened as a teen. It takes a bit, but you will get used to it and learn to talk again. A year later, when my appliance was no longer necessary, it took a while to learn to talk again. But, in my case, the effort was worth it and my teeth looked so much better after 5 years of braces and 1.5 years of a semi-permanent retainer at the back of my lower incisors. Hang in there.

@vanfalcons Год назад

As someone that had to have a lot of dental done throughout most of my childhood, I feel for you, Eric. I had to wear one of those expanders in the roof of my mouth to force the bones back into place when I was in 3rd grade in 1984. It hurt to wear and I had to learn how to talk with it. Any words with E sounds were a pain. I also had to wear braces for almost 5 years as a teenager. It'll all be worth it in the end though. 💯

@jeremymurphy7320 Год назад

Eric O. doing his thing while supposedly not speaking well is still better than most RU-vidrs who speak perfectly, without the occasional muddled word. I had no issues understanding what was said or done and that's what keeps me coming back and picking up little tidbits of info I can use on the Buick, Ford or Kia vehicles that currently occupy my garage. Keep up the great work, Mr and Mrs O.

Seriously folks, there's nothing like mouth pain - it's next to the brain so there's no lag in getting pain messages sent and received. I also have to say if I were one of Eric's kids, I would love it if I screwed up and got a "talking-to" by Eric... Kinda comical until dental work is done! :) Keep swinging the wrenches Eric, we love you!

I design auto transmission for Ford. Seals , bearings & bushings are an important part of the design. Their placement and running surface are critical. This is the first mechanic video I have seen where a punch kit was used for install of seal assembly. Great job. I usually cringe watching others use hammer and screw driver for install. Which can damage the outer races and possibly affect the performance of the part.
