Do you mean the oil pump

No, I am not talking about the oil pump. I am talking about the Oil Slinger (Crown Automotive 5016615AA Oil Slinger ). The metal cap that goes on last over the end of the rear output shaft of the transfer case. It wont simply slide on over the output shaft. So I need to know any tricks or methods of getting on without ruining it or the output shaft.

Here is one solution

Transfer case oil slinger will not slide all the way on

I'm installing a PORC SYE kit into my np231j. I'm trying to slide the oil slinger onto the new rear output shaft. It goes on fine until it gets to the second lock ring groove. It clears the first groove, but will not budge when it gets to the second. Am I doing something wrong here? Thanks,

Guessing either everyone so far thought I was talking about the oil pump or also need to know how to put it on. Surely someone else as rebuilt their transfer case and had to put a new oil slinger back on. I am curious as to how you did it.

 

If it is the part that is not in any oil so could not possibly sling any oil but sometimes fore some blizzard reason called an oil slinger that little crimped on piece is not needed at all

Thats good to know. However, what is the best way to put one back on?

 

Bend it more open to fit then once on bend tabs tighter with a small hammer and punch

Heat near seals a bad idea and aluminum expands more that steel with same temp

Well it is not on at all at the moment because I can not get it started at all over the output shaft. So any heating of the oil slinger would be done off the transfer case. Are you suggesting using some type of pipe to place inside the oil slinger to try and open up the diameter a bit so it will slide over the output shaft?

 

If a hole is too small and you don’t have a lathe a appropriate size drill can enlarge a hole
Even a sanding drum on a dremel can do in a pinch

If the hole is out of round deformed or has a burr a file can also help

This is for a 242 transfer case but I expect the same thing should work. See posts 8 and 11

Thanks for the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Using the brake cylinder hone worked great. Now it did take some time but I would have rather taken my time getting it to the right size than grinding out too much and having to get another one. I didnt even need to heat it up. It still fits snug. I just used a piece of pvc pipe a little larger diameter than the inner flange and tapped it on. After about 6-8 taps it was fully seated.

Thanks again for the link.
