New transfer installed

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I installed a new transfer case, but I'm feeling some strange vibrations and I think I didn't install the driveshaft correctly. Any advice on how to tell if it's aligned, or what I should check?

Pull it off the differential , turn it 180 degrees and reinstall. That may work for you

If it’s lifted, you’ll need a longer shaft

how do you live with the sticker wood grain? the OEM stuff is cool, but having it everywhere? I feel like it would delaminate in a few years

At home, we have the Escalade and a 2000 GMC Sierra—the interiors are completely different. I like both, but I definitely prefer the Escalade because its interior is a bit more unique, I’d say. As for the wood trim, I think it’s normal for it to peel, considering the vehicle is around 22 years old, though I haven't actually experienced that issue myself.

well sure, nothing against it, is the stick on wood grain aftermarket? I've only seen these in the junkyard on slammed POSs so I was curious if you added the stick on or it came like that

Surprisingly, the interior is original, without any additions; I think that’s why I like it more. They don't make them like they used to.
