[QUOTE="Beerj, post: 527737, member: 10035"] Thanks guys. They're awesome. Definitely worth the extra over Corbeau's. Needed something comfortable while I sit and make engine noises while drinking beer. South central Pa to Kentucky. The turnpike was closed on our way back so we ran 45 mph local roads from about Pittsburgh the rest of the way. Looks like the driveshaft will clear. Won't know for sure until the suspension is in but looks like if anything I'll just need to clock the tcase down a little, which I have plenty of room to do. I talked to Joe at rogue right away cause I thought maybe I was doing something wrong. He said .120 is the minimum for the 4.5 die. I can get about 20° before it starts wrinkling. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Just a tiny small update. Got the trans shifter where it's comfortable. Thinking tcase shifters will go to the right of it and just a touch further back.

There's room below but I don't want it too crammed under there. I might just cut 4" out of the tube and put a box in between, flush with the bottom.
