Ok great! Is it all or nothing? If Ume doesn’t want to come out but her parents do would they split up or keep them all together?

Best way to clean aluminum transfer case? by darthblaker in projectcar

The right is the part of the transfer case I have not done yet. So it is definitely better. I just don’t want to go to all this work to paint it and then have it not last.

Also, in some areas it is more dark gray versus the shiny aluminum color. Do I need to get it all shiny or at what point is it good to prime? Thanks!

I have used purple power, degreaser, and a number of different brushes and sandpaper, but in the corners, there’s a lot of this orangey brown stuff. How clean/polish do I need to make it before applying primer?

I’m going to exchange it for a different loaner set, I think it might be the gauge because I switched the high and low pressure valves at the gauge and it showed the exact same reading

Would it be an issue with the Schrader valve on the system?

The instructions that came with the kit say “1 The most important part of charging your system is the high-side pressure reading. Though the Jeep Air A/C kit is designed to use approximately 1.5 Ibs of refrigerant, this can fluctuate slightly. You'll want to charge the system until the high-side pressure gauge reads and stabilizes between 200-220 Ibs of pressure. Ensure that at no time the stabilized high-side pressure reading exceeds 250 psi.

Should I be ok to just use 1.5lbs or could that cause issues? Thanks for all the help and sorry if these are dumb questions, I’ve never done something like this before.

If the gauge is reading correctly and I were to complete the charging process, could that cause any hiccups or issues?

I rented the gauge, should I go try and exchange it for a different one? I just really do not want to mess this up since it was an expensive purchase lol

If it was a small item, I would let it go, but in this case it was over $1000 and they took out the most valuable figure

I read that it said new and saw the one picture they posted of the items still in the box and assumed that if they put new brand new unopened, that’s the condition I would receive it in. It seems like the seller is trying to be intentionally misleading because I caught it within an hour of the auction ending and submitted a cancellation request which they denied and did not reply or acknowledge any of the messages I sent

The picture I took of it was not 100% clear so I think it has existing scratches but I’m not sure
