Cases when replacing the clutch assembly is required
Below are cases in which the entire coupling needs to be replaced. This usually happens as a result of overheating, but it can also be a consequence of poor-quality repairs.
Figure 1 shows the separation of the splined part (along the groove of the retaining ring) of the drive gear. Such a breakdown is possible on any transfer case - ATC300/ATC400/ATC500/ATC700.
Apart from the case mentioned above, you may prefer to install a new one simply because it consists entirely of new parts assembled and adjusted at the factory.
