AWD Sierra Denali going 80e... HELP!
 

Finally got the balls to do the right thing... I'm going with an 80e. I have everything I need except the input gear for my transfer case. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I have a little bit of time, but the goal is to have this done by the end of march which is quickly approaching. It's also a daily driver, so I am trying to get all my parts completely squared away so that it is not out of commission for more than a weekend.

It seems this part is getting harder and harder to find these days...

Here is what you need.

Here is a 65E output shaft to show the size difference between the 60E shaft and the 80E.

Thanks pat. I will send him a message.

i guess the other question i should have asked was if the input gear and shaft is different for the 149 than the standard 4x4 transfer case... because I already have one for a standard transfer case, I just assumed they were different.

Yes, they are different. The NVG149 is "unique". :)

The picture above is of the one in the NVG149, thats actually my input housing in the pictures. The 4 x 4 ones actually have a gear on them where as the NVG does not as its a vicious coupling.

Cool deal bud your gonna love the 80e !

Thanks for the help guys!


I hope so Tim. Its gonna a hurt my times a little, but the peace of mind is definitely worth it. I just hope I can get out of the hole ok...

So uhhhhh... I haven't been around much lately I gotta ask about the frogs lol

what converter are you planning on using?
