GX470 Transfer Case Actuator Rebuild

If your transfer case refuses to lock, you may be a leaking seal between the transfer case and actuator. The oil fills the actuator box and causes the sensors to malfunction.
Once the box is removed and the seals are replaced, this reinstall method reduces the chances or tearing the new seals you just installed.
Also, by opening the actuator case you can clean it out and re-lubricate it with white lithium grease.
Enjoy this video of a regular guy just trying to figure it out!
Tips:
1.) Pay close attention to the blue dial orientation. It must as shown in my video. Many online forums have better descriptions.
2.) The shaft from the transfer case must be all the way pulled out.
3.) The first time you open the actuator, be prepared for gear oil. Put something down to catch it.
4.) I probably should have glued in that little pin I dropped to make it easier.

Ours quit shifting because the connections on the motor were loose. We put a little solder in there and it works fine now.

Thanks for your video. Would you please elaborate on the position of the blue dial and the lower gear positions? I couldn't find more detailed information on forums (at least that I could understand). Thanks again!

What did you find out? Dealing with this right now. Have everything lined up like he does but the actujust sits there and beeps and doesn't actuate anything.

Wouldn't it have been easier to remove the actuator from the truck, and then rebuild the actuator with it on your workbench so that you don't have parts falling on your head during the reassembly process?

The advantage is you don’t need to do the twist on method. By assembling on the truck, you ensure the rod, position sensors and gears are all in the correct position. Otherwise the box is closed and you are hoping to get it right. Also you may rip or shift the seal by trying to jam / twist it on there.

@@tonyprescenzi1007 hello, thank you for video, what if I did remove the unit to change seals and now I don't think i aligned it right because the light now flashes and it didn't prior to me removing it. What do I do now?
