Exclamation Transfer Case 44-05 Warning

FYI, when changing the fluid in the Borg Warner 44-05 transfer case, DO NOT over tighten the fill and drain plugs. Reason being the over torque will crack the the case especially the drain plug. I know because I did it and come to find out (to late) from someone I know at Ford, the cracking was a problem.
