Hello everyone,

I have a 2011 E70 35i and I was looking for actuator motor to remove and change out the black gear on the worm screw. I couldn't find it and went to put the TransferCase Cross Member back on and now I can get it past the rubber insert where the long pass through bolt goes.

Has anyone had this problem, if so how did you fix it?

The drive train requires support during removal of that cross member. If it is not supported then you may need to lift the TC / AT a bit to get the holes to line up.

Yes, I understand this, the issue is the rubber mounts won't allow me to get the crossmember around them.

Crossmember question

I cant get the crossmember past this part# 22326780025

Has anyone has this issue?

Probably because it the rubber bushing is hardened at this point. You might want to try and apply some Sil Glyde or similar to the rubber mount and see if that helps lubricate it enough to allow you to mate the parts.

...apply some Sil Glyde or similar

Bwahaha! KY will work as well and can be reused.

Try flipping the bolt through the opposite direction. And have a jack under the transfercase so you can lower and lift up as needed to fit
