I have my t/case extension off to change the bearing and replace the seal on the output shaft and in doing the strip-down, I have removed the VC. I was wondering if there is any easy or obvious way of testing whether the VC is good or not?
I know they can seize up and cause all sorts of problems with wind-up on the drivetrain. Other than the truck feeling like the CD is locked, is there any other way of judging whether the VC is good or not?
I have tried turning it in my hands and it's tight (no play or movement) but I imagine that it takes more than hand stength to turn it, even if perfectly healthy?
Cheers,
