Anyone used this Np241 clocking ring?

I know he makes good diff covers and he stands by them, I would assume he is a good guy since he has a good rating on ebay, I might just by one today, he is cheaper than what I have found /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
I had the ring from DP90_k5 and that ring seems to be the same thing. The one I had was great. I sold it cause I am going to a driver side pumpkin and it would clock a driver side Tcase down instead of up.

at full clock you have to dimple the floorboards a bit but thats simple.

even with an 1" body lift?
 
I have a 3" body lift. When I clock it all the way up, I assume I wont have any body clearance issues. When you say modify the shifter, what do you mean? The little indicator looks kinda funny now that I put the body lift on but other than that its ok. I assume I'm going to need the front driveshaft lengthened because I'm running 6" lift, and plan on having it rotated all the way up. I have a stock length shaft w/ a 1" spacer on the t-case flange now.
 
you will likely need a longer shaft. As for the adjustment of the shifter, you need to adjust it for the rotation. Same thing you should have done with the body lift. Look at the linkage, there is adjustment in it, thats why your shift pattern is a little off. If its bad enough it could cause you to skip out of say 4 lo or high when offroad. 1" body lift ,I know on a Suburban you don't need to dimple the floor when you have that.
 
I have a 2" body lift on mine. I clocked mine all the way up AND raised the entire drivtrain up abou another inch and half. I had to actually cut the floorboards because there was no way of "dimpling" them to make it fit. BUt now I have a flat belly with a skid plate from frame rail to frame rail. /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif

Good god what size plate did you use? That looks like 3/16. Must be one heavy pig huh?

It's 1/4 inch and it's not horrible heavy.

You can grind the stops in the CV on the front shaft. It will give you a little more angle, but not much.

Esteban86K5 how much lift do you run?

I ground the stops on mine and extended it a couple of inches and it has worked for me so far.

And I run 4" suspension with a zero rate in the back and 2" body lift.
 
I have a shim in the front that puts my front pinion angle within a workable range. And in the rear I had already relocated my spring perches so the rear axle was already rotated for the better pinion anlge. After I raised the drivtrain up I left it the same and it hasn't given me a problem yet. I'm sure it's a little off but not enough for me to worry about on a rig that doesn't see much street driving.
 
That flat belly is soooooooooo sexy. /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

And tell the truth, you have High Angle Drivelines, that's how you can get away with this.

guys, if you do this, WATCH YOUR ANGLEs, especially on that front driveline!
