mountainman Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 :rotfl2: Your crackin me up dude. You need an award for shortest post ever. So... whats the deal? pedal is concrete like? rubbery feel? did you inspect stuff? pedal rod popped out of the master cyl? something out of place with pedal arm? clutch failed and won't allow slave cyl travel? has to be something simple.

Comanche County Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Had something like this happen on an F250 that kept popping the hydraulic line off of the slave cylinder. The clip that held the line to the slave was a bad design, and would pop off every other week or so resulting in zero pedal travel. When it happens the fluid in the master has no where to go. Air compresses, liquids don't and will result in a rock hard pedal. Check and ensure its connected to the slave properly and that there are no shipping plugs or debris of any kind on/in the slave cylinder. There is something preventing fluid flow.

jimoshel Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Also if it's been sitting for awhile it's possible the piston is froze up to the cylinder wall. Will need dis assembled and cleaned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOrnbrod Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Would part # 17 be worth replacing and has anyone ever replaced. Its some kind of bushing. thanks Unless you have a lot of side to side slop in the driveshaft yoke it probably does not need replacing. A properly installed seal should be all you need. And good job ignoring the wannabe comedians posting useless replies. :dunce: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pug Posted September 15, 2012 Author Share Posted September 15, 2012 Took to local shop they put in new rear output seal in transfercase starting to leak again. Is there something else causing this to leak. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Took to local shop they put in new rear output seal in transfercase starting to leak again. Is there something else causing this to leak. thanks As Hornbrod wrote, part #17 does not need to be replaced "Unless you have a lot of side to side slop in the driveshaft yoke ..." If you have enough slop that a new seal was destroyed in a short time, you might need to replace part #17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Took to local shop they put in new rear output seal in transfercase starting to leak again. Is there something else causing this to leak. thanks There could be. Pull the driveshaft and examine the slip yoke shaft. It should be smooth with no grooves especially where it rides in the seal. If there is even a minute worn groove, you can throw seals in it all day and they will leak eventually. If there's a groove, replace the slip yoke. Also make sure the outer seal edge is coated with a thin coat of hi-temp RTV when installing so it won't leak around the outer pressed in edge. Don't drive it for 24-hours or so to let the RTV set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
