Double check your u joints. I've had them starting to bind up and cause a lot of noise from the tcase chain.

They should be good, was new when the truck was built and on the road, should be free, but just because I may slap some grease in it.

It only makes noise when I let off the gas, on it is fine, let off and it makes noise, if I gradually let off it is fine.

What do you guys think about this kit?

A new chain is around 100, and a new pump is about 40 ish. These bearings are pressed in right? How do I get them out?

If you get a chain don't buy Chinese make sure it's USA, the others stretch bad.

In 2WD or 4WD?

2wd

That's what I hear to get a Morse Borg worker chain.

 

[campfire]

In 2WD with hubs unlocked the chain should not be moving. So the chain should not be contributing to the noise.

Did you ever fix your rear axle. Deceleration noise is a lot of the time the pinion gear.

I saw that one but thought it probably is the same stuff.

The bearing looked better than the first one. The one in the first kit look like sealed bearing in the picture.

This is a combination of MAW, the Domino effect and probably the butterfly effect. The newly coined "blazergasm" will be in full effect when it's finally road trustworthy instead of just road worthy. I would try my hardest to make BB18 if this rig was there. It's not the most built, or most detailed, but I do feel it's got more tears and dedication into it than 75% of the builds combined.

Thank you so much, my plan is to make every Blazer bash and especially the anniversary year. I really appreciate your kind words.

So what's everyone's favorite sealant to use on a tcase? I was thinking right stuff rtv or anaerobic sealer.

I'll be pulling it Monday for inspection.

[Babaganoosh]

Yes but the anaerobic sealer is meant for aluminum to aluminum hmmmmm
