T-case yoke hard to turn with tranny in neutral. Changed out my old np435 for a newer model 80’s era that had the output shaft swapped. Sealed up my Dana 20 and slapped them in. Transmission was easy to turn by hand and so was the tcase but when I put them together it takes a lot of strength to turn the output of the rear yoke on transfer cas. Also my adapter doesn’t seem to cinch down as close to the transmission as with the previous np435...could the tranny output shaft be a hair too long and causing the tension/resistance? Or if I over tighten the tcase yoke would that cause it? Anyone run into this before?
