Transfer box

Basically Im fitting breather lines and the one on the top of the transfer box is virtually impossible to get to! is it possible to drop/lower the transfer box slightly to ease access?or does anyone have any helpful tips?don't particularly want to remove it completely but want to finish the job as i've done the diffs

Also i seem to only be able to locate one breather on the transfer box, the one that's on the top near where the lever goes through. is there only one or two? my jimny is a stock manual 2002 model with the DOHC cam engine.

laning monday with some fords involved so want to complete the job tomorrow so please help fast:)

Ive been following this guide www.danbp.org/w/Extending_the_breathers_of_the_Suzuki_Jimny . my transfer box doesn't look like this, i'm guessing that this is a newer one with the push button 4wheel drive selector as there seems to be no lever going through the floor.

I'm working on it , I'm not finished yet. :dry:

some pictures

I hope to be useful

















The tests are performed in a t-case that I have outside the jimny

is that for the breather on top of the transfer box? the one near the selector lever? do you know if its possible to drop the transfer box a little bit without removing it to allow better access?

hi,yes you can drop the transfere box to make it easyer just make sure you support it with something depending where your doing it ie a jack or gearbox stand,if you have a look in my jimny and look at my thread ive got a couple of pics up of where ive done my breathers hope this helps.

hi thanks for the response, what do i need to undo to drop the box?i dont want to completely remove it, doing it all on my drive with axle stands and a jack:) ive already removed the 4x4 selector gator as though it might give more access but still looks impossible. any help is greatly appreciated as im tryin to get it done by monday!

Surport on a jack Undo the mounts off the t box and chassis and lower it all down
