The rear output is top. The other idea would be to use a np200 or something similar I need to drop the rear outputCan you use a 241 and clock it down?

Interesting thought, I wonder how those handle sustained use.. the other thought was chain but I don’t know what size or any of that or if it’s worth messing with.. we’ll see how much room I actually have..You could do an SCS transfer case/drop box. They put the rear output in line with the front output which would drop it but also offset it to one side. They are not cheap though.
If you get a van 14bff and cut one side and narrow it you could make it offset, and you can still have a slight angle in the driveline as well.The 4wd thing is back up in the air until I can find a suitable geometry that will cycle the travel and not plunge 4 inches which is how it is setup on the green blazer. So that’s where we are at until the mock-up is done. One thought I had was to run a land rover lt230 case which has an offset output and is all gear drive, also has underdrive. But I don’t know how far a 14 bolt can be offset. So I’ll have to look into if that’s even worth doing or not.. I need to drop the output down a few inches to fix this issue.
Good idea, then one shaft is stock. The class 3 has one of the Quadratrac cases in it and it works awesome but I don’t have the coin to get one built, I would almost rather have a part time case and use a viscous coupler on the driveshaft for that little extra slip to bow blow up the front driveline.If you get a van 14bff and cut one side and narrow it you could make it offset, and you can still have a slight angle in the driveline as well.
Jeeps with the quadratrac got the AMC model 20 which is centered in later years before they moved to the np229.
The driveshaft was at an angle
It kind of begs the question also if I left the diff in the middle is there enough angle to be a problem?There's alot of axle combos you can do if you have a drivetrain place with a catalog of 14BFF axle shafts.
Look up mega trucks or trucks gone wild on you tube. Pretty much all of the mega horsepower ag tire buggies run those drop boxes.
I didn't mean the quadratrac for you, just giving you an example to show you can do offset rear output with centered axle or slightly offsetGood idea, then one shaft is stock.

Didn't mopars or something run an offset diff with center drive at the trans maybe I'm thinking Land Rover. Somebody did.It kind of begs the question also if I left the diff in the middle is there enough angle to be a problem?
Jeep, as I mentioned above.Didn't mopars or something run an offset diff with center drive at the trans maybe I'm thinking Land Rover. Somebody did.
It was Bent, just like you.Sheet metal hater....
Its going into the dumpster, you decide.So it’s good?
