I am helping my son rebuild his transfer case on his '71 Bronco. Need some advise on the best way to clean the case up to paint.
Will engine cleaner do the job or is there something else that would work better?

Is it aluminum or steel? if it is steel, take it to the car wash.

If it is aluminum got get the aluminum brighter, or wheel acid. It will clean it well enough to paint.

Better yet just give the whole truck to me.

I beleive it is steel and no I can't give it to you. I have been trying to get my son to give it to me, he wont part with it.

without a doubt brake cleaner!! Dont squirt it on any seals on purpose though!

I found rubbing alcohol to really work good to just get a little bit of oil off when I painted my engine, so If you want to use that after you get the major gunk off that would be cool.
