T-case...how close is it?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Big Blue · 04-11-2005, 05:19 PM

I have a 700r4 with a 208. It came from a 86 Surburban. Can someone take a picture of theirs. I need to see how close it is to the frame and does it get attached to the frame. Here is why I ask,,, on the side of the t-case there are bolt holes, like you can attach the case to the frame. I'll take pics later.

Thanks John

The 2 bolt holes on side of T/C are for a support rod I think. It would be a rod about 3/4" round and about 30" long that attaches from the side of the T/C to the back of the bell housing. Probably something to do with keeping everything from twisting under torque.
