Did you put a new lock washer on with the OD? If so, did you remove the
tabs you didn't need? These will hit the splines on the OD and keep it
from going in all the way.

So instead of putting the OD back on I just put the mainshaft bearing housing back on. Now the truck will not move. In the forward gears I get no noise or anything; in reverse it gives a spinning/whining sound from the gearbox. I have the tried the t-case in lo and hi range and no difference. Am I missing something here ?
So I go back and try and put the OD back on and it does not want to
mount back flush w/ the gearbox. I can start the nuts on the studs but
it is about a half inch short of being flush. I do not want to break one
of the flanges on the OD so here I am. Are there any special tricks to
putting the OD back on ? Why would it not move w/ just the mainshaft
bearing housing on ? Any help and input much appreciated.
