NP 205 Seals??

[Alex_B]

Im tryin to find out where to get a set of shift rail seals for my 205. I called my local GM dealer and they coulden't get them, which I think is bull $h!t. If I can get them are they difficult to install?

Thanks

Going to call up the dealer and tell them how lazy and stupid they are?

GM PART # 3979626
CATEGORY: All
PACK QTY: 1
CORE CHARGE: $0.00
GM LIST: $11.39
OUR PRICE: $6.75

You might be able to get them cheaper somewhere else though. National drivetrain comes to mind, as well as vendors here that deal with NP205 stuff.

It looks like the t-case needs to be disassembled to change the shift rail seals. Is this right? Has anyone done it?

Yes, complete tear down of t-case to replace those seals. I would also check your shift rails for wear. They have a tendency to grove from the seals and continue to leak unless replaced.

F%$KKKKK!!!! That sucks, I just had the thing completly stripped apart a few month ago.

No you do not need to do a tear down to replace the shift rail seals. I did mine in the driveway without even droping the drive shaft. The part number for NAPA is 7443. Just get creative i used a small screwdriver, seal pick and a hammer.

 

[83silverado]

Your right now I think of it. But I would still check those shift rails closely.

One "trick" I've tried a few times is to seat the seal just a hair further out than it was stock, so the seal surface is moved.

I know they make speedi-sleeves for a lot of things, but this is cheaper lol.
