Please take a look at the pictures, shouldn't the 2 sprockets align? or be level to each other?

Help with my NP 241c Transfercase

I don’t know jack about 241’s but I’d say the gears need to be on the same plane.

Should be level. Something is assembled wrong. front output sprocket on right, bearing pressed in right? Do you have all the thrust washers on the input shaft?
Front output shaft gear is to high. see fig 10,11,12

Things don't line up perfectly until you have the rear case half on and the snap rings installed. Now it is possible to have something stacked improperly and be off, but it won't work properly until everything is put together.
The front output shaft stack is pretty straightforward. Typically a thin washer, thrust bearing and thick washer at both ends in a 208. 241 should be similar and it should be clear in the manual. I would double check that and also make sure you can get the case together with proper operation of the front output. Once you're sure that is correct, the main shaft being different tells you something is wrong in the main assembly.
While the shafts aren't parallel until the rest of the assembly is done, the misalignment looks too great in the photos to be explained by that.

Thank you all for your replies,
JBS Conversion SYE was installed into my NP 241C with VSS, I received the transfercase with a crack in the front half, I got a replacement and transferred everything over and found the input shaft sprocket like it is in the picture.
I cant find anything that is missing in the NP 241 diagram's or from the pictures I was taking while I took it apart. I did put on the other half, rear half of the case without sealant and It went on very easily and flush with the front half.
How may the assembly of the rest of the case help in the miss alignment of the main shaft sprocket?
I really need to get this resolved. On Saturday I will insert picture of what is in there for you all to tell me what is missing.
But, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you all, for your help

It's been a couple of years since I last worked on one with the SYE kit, but I know that the rear output shaft gets located by the rear bearing. Without the yoke bolted on and the snap ring on the rear bearing, the shaft can move into the case too far.
However, as @Blue85 mentioned, it looks like too much difference between the two sprockets for final assembly to fix. Maybe there is something stacked incorrectly and the rear needs to be assembled the rest of the way.

howzit Guys,
could you tell me what 1 full turn, zero to zero represents?

Well an 1/8" is .125, so under an 1/8". I don't know the exact dimension besides saying .100"
Each one of the small marks is what the face says, .001 inches, or 1/1000 of an inch. One revolution is 100 of those marks, or 100/1000 which is .1 or 1/10 inches.
If you have a ruler or tape measure, you can measure the distance traveled when the needle moves 2.5 times around the dial. That would be 2500/1000 which is .25 inches or 1/4 of an inch.
Note: odds are its not going to be exactly 1/4 of an inch unless you have a good tape. The indicator is almost certainly going to be more accurate than a cheap ruler.
