The Merchant Automotive 10001 Transfer Case Pump Upgrade Kit for your 01-07 GM 6.6L Duramax is the best upgrade you can make to your GM transfer case (model 136, 146, 246, 261, 261HD, 263HD, 263XHD, 261XHD) to prevent the ever increasing problem of pump rub.What is pump rub?
The GM transfer cases use a gear pump inside the case that is driven off the mainshaft. The pump forces oil to the planetary as well as the drive sprocket sleeve. Because the pump is driven by the shaft, the housing of the pump must 'float' in the rear housing. There are 5 tabs around the housing that fit into spots in the rear housing to position the pump. Over time, the pump can start to wear on the rear housing. GM installed a spring steel clip in the housing intended to prevent wear but the clip can break and render useless
Being that the pump housing is aluminum and is a harder material then the magnesium rear housing, it can wear a hole in the rear housing and cause a very small leak. This leak is high enough in the case that it typically will not leak when vehicle is not moving and therefore not leaving any drops on the ground. Typically the condition is not found until there is transfer case damage from running the case out of fluid.With installation of this kit, you will have a LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY against pump rub.
Included Components:
- Merchant Automotive billet transfer case pump housing
- Transfer case adapter gasket at trans
- RTV Silicone
- Blue Threadlock
- Merchant Automotive sticker
If you already have a hole in your case, its recommended to install a new rear housing for a proper repair. Lifetime warranty will only apply to installations with a new rear housing.

Frequently Asked Questions:
What do I do with the OEM anti rattle clip when installing this upgrade?
You can discard the factory clip during installation of this kit. Its been designed to work with the clip removed.
What other parts will I need to install this upgrade kit?
We tried to make the kit all inclusive for a basic installation. This is taking into consideration of course that its being installed as preventative measures. If its being installed as part of a repair or after pump rub has occurred, there is no real way to know the extent of the damage inside the case until it is torn down. Most times, as long as the case has not run out of fluid, it can usually be repaired with a new rear housing and seal and prevented from ever happening again using the upgrade kit. Regardless of the reason for installing this upgrade, you will need to refill the transfer case with oil. We recommend our Performance Transfer Case Oil for use in ALL transfer cases.

My dog loves these things
Size: Large, Color: Femur Bone
My dog loves these things. They don't smell at all. It was a great price. It's big enough for my Frenchie. It's pretty durable but he is able to gnaw it rough so I do have to replace them periodically.

Doggo Approved
Size: X-Large, Color: Textured Ring, Size: X-Large, Color: Textured Ring
About as indestructible as it gets. It's just very hard molded material. I always make sure to wash the dog toys before letting them play, who knows where they come from. Picture is after hours/days of the built playing with it

Old Faithful
Size: Large, Color: Wishbone, Size: Large, Color: Wishbone
AmStaf/Lab loves this product. I am still concerned about him ingesting the sharp little pieces he gnaws off, but he seems OK after three months of using these. Tried the Nylabone natural/wild products but they are not usable as a "chew" and disappear within minutes, nay seconds!
-So here I am back to the "strong chew" wishbone product which makes my dog happy and keeps him busy not eating my shoes. (Be warned though, these are worse than Legos if accidentally stepped on!)

Perfect for small dog that likes to chew
Size: Small, Color: Textured Ring
Just got this today (small size for my 15 lb dog) and she loves it. Perfect size for her small mouth and teeth. Keeps her busy and even tires her out and rests a while, Between this type of dog toys and ones that squeak she is having a great time

Great purchase!
Color: Red, Color: Red
I have 3 very different dogs, a Doberman, a rat terrier, and a German short hair - Great Pyrenees mix. They all LOVE these durable chew toys. I will definitely be purchasing more when the time comes. I wouldn’t need more due to durability but my rat terrier is an expert toy hider! 😅
