well, im thinking i may have to clock my np241 down to get a better angle on the front driveline b/c i have such a short wheel base and im runnin 12+ inches of lift.... i read that i can use kert's drivers drop clocking ring to drop my pass. side case downward.

basically, im wondering what you guys did to modify the crossmember and how much you clocked it.

Did it help out alot???

pics would be fantastic if you have any

thanks

How about a 2 piece drive line? Or the best thing to do would be to cut the knuckles and rotate the pinion up.

well, honestly i was mostly concerned about the cv up at the transfer case...im trying to do this truck on a budget since it's a very very budget build..... dont wanna cut/turn if i dont need too. i think i can make the rear work since im pushing the rear end back with a zero rate 1.5inches...but the front is where it gets tricky. im going to try to clearance the stock cv and extend the shaft to work.

I would look into a 2 piece drive line for the front. The rear is easy, Just cut, rotate, and reweld the perches.
