better Identify it before you go to the JY if you dont want to waste all day and alot of gas going back and forth (ive done this more than once)

i went to the JY and i found the one i needed. but i didn't have the tools to off the yoke. also, i couldn't take off one of the straps since the axle was on the floor so i'm just going to order the u-bolt style yoke.

is this the transfer case???




Do i take off these bolts to remove the driveshaft so i can take off the busted u-joint on the other side??



Also, where are the bolts located on the tc so i can take out all the oil and the one so i can fill it up?

- this is harder then i thought it would be.

after a bit of staring at it... i figured that it slipped right out... i'm about to take off the busted u-joint and throw on the new one so when i get the new yoke i can have everything done fast. and for that tc case, i'm going to tighten the bolts and see if that fixes it.

i'm not sure. i ordered the yoke for a dana 35 since that's what i think it has in the rear.

I just changed the u-joint now all i need is to change the pinion yoke. for the u-joint i used a 27mm socket, a 13mm socket, and a steel hammer easier then i thought it would be.
