Re: Tranny and Transfer Case ?

[n9ads@domain.elided (Howard R Pletcher)]

Not to pick on Dan and his advise, but a) since the fuel tank is attached
to the body, not the frame, no fuel filler mod will be required, even if
you lift it 10",  and b) no adjusting of the steering column should be
needed for the 2" lift I think you mentioned.  Just disconnect the rag
joint before you jack the body up as you'll probably lift it more than 2"
while installing the parts which would damage it.  You will need to
remove the fan shroud while installing the lift and modify it for
clearance.  If it's a manual, you'll need to readjust the clutch linkage
and also check that the transfer case shifter doesn't hit the edge of the
slot in the tunnel cover in 4WD Lo.

And technically, the single speed transfer case is a TC-143, not a T-143.
