The red candy is RTV. When it gets hot and mixes with transfer case fluid it becomes hard. The only reason I know is because I’ve worked on these and the operators beat these things like a cabin screen door. So when changing the trans or transfer case they will cake RTV in there for whatever reason.

Hope they don't get away with closing the trail. What they do here in Washington is you drive the trails all year and when you come back the next year the trails have gates and ditches. They sneak it in when no one is watching and of course the media helps by ignoring the story. Its amazing how much planning and (our) money goes into sneaking in these closures, whereas you never see them spend any of our money on improvements. Join the Blue ribbon coalition!!

I've often wondered if the slow creepy crawly technique that was letting the HUMMER make progress on that steep bottomless sand hill would allow a vehicle to make forward, albeit very slow, progress. I'd have also been interested to see if the FJ might have done something similar in its lowest gearing configuration just idling along, but I don't know/recall what kind of gear ratios the FJ has for transmission, low range transfer case, and final drive. Maybe an experiment for the net time the FJ is on that obstacle. But I'm also pretty sure Paul's preferred MO in that situation is "maximum onion and let that V8 roar!" 🤠

Cooler lines tee off to circulate through a cooling loop that is inside transfer. Funny valve in cooler lines is to regulate a surge in line pressure. Note common leeaking from hoses, fix is use fuel line clamps on the rubber hoses or double hose clamp. Red "candy" is anarobic sealant that is supposed to stay soft (also used on portal hub input seal plate). Should be a steel cable that goes from transfer case to crossmember to counter torque twist. Black tubing is vent system that goes up to airfilter housing and a small filter behind it on fire wall. Trans takes 7.7 quarts with filter change.
