FJ40 Orion Build Part 3 at Valley Hybrids

Let me make this clear, call Georg at Valley Hybrids [phone]. They have the answers, the parts, and the skills to keep your project on the trail/road. We continued our build of the Orion Case despite the foul weather... It started getting bad, lots of stuff blowing across the roof. Wee also lost power a few times. But we didn't stop, and now the transfer case is about done! Just need to mate it to the transmission, which will be the last video of this part of the build.

Outstanding rebuilding . Outstanding connentations too ! Poor Raechel . But hey , no job is complete without . The install should be even more fun 😃

[@projectwrongway9127]

Not looking forward to the uphill battle that is installing this again…

I was so worried that, as George is of a certain age, that his shaft would be soft. THANKFULLY, Ben confirmed its stiffness. Thank you Ben.

[@projectwrongway9127]

Got to check everything. Stronger the grip, the better.

[@stoneshrink]

@@projectwrongway9127 Thanks for letting us know what's going on behind the drapes. *shiver*

[@projectwrongway9127]

Ha, Drapes.

[@DirtyDog8AK]

I will be rewatching these videos multiple times in the near future. well done.

[@projectwrongway9127]

That was the hope, to give some solid info to the builders out there.

Damnit! We have to wait to see mating time? Thanks Ben and Georg, and Rachael of course. Great video.

[@projectwrongway9127]

Mating should be the best part. I can promise it’ll be the shortest episode… 😉

[@brianalamo3487]

These videos are awesome. Thank you so much. I’m going to rebuild my transfer case. I will check for wear on the shaft.

[@projectwrongway9127]

Call Georg with question too, the man’s a trans wizard.

Love the silicone on the o-ring idea

[@projectwrongway9127]

Worked magic, keeps the flavor in.

Tell me how this dropped into my TH-cam stream while I was pulling into Stockton on a 9 Hour drive home from San Diego in our 100 series. spooky. Super fun to watch Georg get drawn into Ben's humor…..
Clearly, I now need one of these for my 40! adding it to the wishlist!

[@projectwrongway9127]

I’ve had to do some pretty heavy favors (sexual) to the algorithm. I’m not proud, but glad the video got to you!

[@brandonprice6601]

Great videos. No rear end loading exit only!

[@projectwrongway9127]

Unless you’re open to it.

Mantap

[@projectwrongway9127]

My thoughts exactly.

[@ryanknapp4964]

What size is that useful tube Georg used to drive on the bearings?

[@projectwrongway9127]

It’s a repurposed piece of transfer case shaft I believe
