Long time no see everyone. Just a quick an update on how things are going. I've moved, got my own house, still drive the old Ranger, and have acquired the old family 4x4 Blazer.
So on to the problem. The family Blazer is a bit of a gremlin when things go wrong. This time, the AT fluid overfilled into the transfer case and got sucked up through the actuator switch and into the vacuum lines. Damage seems minimal to the vacuum line system and I have already flushed the lines clean. I've also disconnected the 4x4 vacuum lines to prevent further spread until the main problem is fixed. So I have a 4x4 Blazer with no working 4x4 system, but drivable if needed (The Ranger is my daily driver as it never lets me down).
So now for the questions. I have been trying to figure out what seals that need to be replaced. I know the leak is between the transmission output and the transfer case input shaft. But I don't know how many seals there are. I have found the transfer case seal, but there doesn't seem to be a transmission output shaft seal for a 4x4 model. A good diagram would help, but I can't find one of a 4x4 model.
