HI All

just purchased a new gearbox for my r32gtr ..after converting it from pull to push, i will have to remove the old transfer case and put it on the new box.. is it ok to refill the gear box while its not connected to the transfer case or the car..will be much easier to fill on the ground.

Really ?! 

I take it you've got no idea about the GTR transmission and are not doing this job yourself, as you would not ask this. You can't bolt in a new transmission without the transfer case attached (believe me I've tried that), so why would this even be a question ?

No, it will piss oil everywhere out the back of the box with no transfer case attached. Get a $10 1 litre hand oil pump and fill the box in the car like any other transmission or diff oil change.

If you must, you can fill both the transfer and box if bolted together on the ground if you have your ATTESA actuator installed or a blanking plate in the back of transfer case. Transfer has to be bolted to box to seal box leaking oil - rear of transfer has to be sealed at actuator to stop transfer leaking oil.
