I have a few finished diaries (A4LD, A4LD Valve Body and the 5R55E Valve Body Rebuild Diary (one of my most popular ever). I am in the infancy of the 4R70W Diary, and now I'm starting the BW 1354 Diary? Well, I thought I'd put out a little teaser. I have an A4LD to rebuild this weekend for someone, and then I thought maybe I'd dig into the Borg Warner 1354 Transfer case - the one used by Ford in the early Explorers.

Ktm 2016 200 xcw manual. Now mind you, I know absolutely nada to speak of about transfer cases, so I thought this might be a good one to rebuild together with you all and we can all learn together. Through the magic of pictures, this site and the internet. I have a 1354 on site to rebuild.

It's usage history is a little uncertain, but I cleaned it all up and externally it looks practically new. It came out of a 91 Ranger.

I searched around for a rebuild kit and lo and behold found a great site online that sells kits, and chains for most transfer cases (including the 4405, which will be the next Diary after everything else gets done - I have one of those thanks to Section425. (And a 96 2WD 4R70W so I now have 2 of those to build, one 4WD and 1 2WD). When the rebuild kit came today, I opened the package and laughed out loud when I read the label on the parts, mounted on cardboard under shrink wrap. Know how we sometimes laughingly call our Explorers.' Here is the printing: Mind you this is from NatPro which is a major national mfgr of auto parts! Anyway, The rebuild kit costs $100, and a new chain is another $100. I know enough to know that chains DO wear out, but for $100, before comitting to buy a new one I thought I'd wait til I had the transfer case busted open to see the condition of the one in there and read up on when it should be replaced.

But I did buy the rebuild kit. It consisted of that cardboard sheet, with 3 ball bearings, a bronze bushing, a needle roller bearing bushing, two small plastic thingies (technical name), two nuts (look like locknuts), and something in the middle wrapped in corrosion resistant paper.

As I looked at the corrosion paper I noticed it was on inside out, the wrapping said 'This side towards part to be protected' or something like that and it was on the outside. I didn't take a picture but what was inside was a plastic housed filter and a hose (hardly needing corrosion protection). The anti-corrosion paper was for the OTHER parts, and that was why it was on inside out. Here is a pic of this these parts: Then there was a second package, with a cardboard stiffener. It contained a cheap cardboard gasket, 3 of what, for lack of a better term, could be described as shaft oil seals (much like you see on the output shafts of transmissions or behind wheel bearings) a couple of what look like sealing rings for maybe a shaft passage into the TC and a small O-ring.

Here it all is: So, that's what you get for $100. Here is our 'victim'. A little hard to see against the painted floor the same color. The dark ring to your left facing you is the gasket to the transmission and the output shaft goes into that splined shaft. The right hand yoke is for the front wheel drive. Directly on the opposite side of the input is the main rear wheel output - power to the rear wheels is trabnsmitted straight through. Another view of the area that connects to the transmission and the splined input.

Now on the other side. You can see the shift motor, the rear wheel output, and an arrow points to the infamous 'brown wire' Here's a close up of the shift motor and to finish, a closup of the 'brown wire' and where it goes in the connector For now, stay tuned. We can all have fun on this one together. Maybe by the time we tear into the 4405 we collectively will know a little more than we do starting on this one. I checked out the ROCKAUTO site, and indeed you CAN buy a new chain there for $48, instead of the $100 at the other site.THANK YOU JCook007. Out of curiosity I priced the rest of the rebuild kit, which they sell MOST of as individual parts.

Not only did they not include everything, but there was no apparent savings to be had - so, for the rebuild kit, use the other link to drivetrain.com. So, it appears that everything you might need to rebuild can be had for $150, plus shipping. Oh, by the way, ROCK auto sells rebuilt shift motors for $60. With a $25 core, just FYI. Ok a little more tease. I recently picked up a 'grab bag' of 1354 parts.

So I thought I'd show you my tiny arsenal of replacement parts. Since I did not want to appear totally stupid.(which I really am on these things). I looked at the CD for the transfer case.

This is a 'front adapter' (kinda looking like some type of mini pump to me) Then the shifter forks. First plastic then metal then the electric shift cam assembly. The output flange and some kinda metal rod (another technical name - when this thread is done we can attach proper names) Finally an assortment. There are some snap rings here, inside and outside. As a rule I am learning that reuse of outside snap rings isn't a recommended idea.

I am not sure inside snap rings have the same bad karma. But anyway I have some here. Plus a spring and a thingamajigger.

(last technical name for tonight). I'm kinda like a kid at Christmas. I really love learning and sharing what I learn, and this one is completely new territory for me. Was that transfer case this clean, or did you clean it up before the pictures? In the A4LD rebuild diary, you showed a before, and after picture of it with a nice fresh paint job. I remember seeing 2 A4LD cases that were painted.

Do you need special seal drivers for this rebuild, or do the ones from one of your Rotunda transmission sets fit? In the picture, it looks like they have a few different sizes in this kit. Which CD has the information for rebuilding one of these that you just mentioned? Is it the main Ford CD set, or one from another company, like Mitchell?
