i have both of the 4cyl tcases for my dual case setup, but dont have the ~$1000 for the adapters and drivelines. is one 4cyl tcase with the v6 transmission adapter close enough to the length of just the v6 tcase that i could run it with the stock drivelines? i need to build a crossmember and skidplate and i would rather only build it once. thanks.

if nobody knows the length difference could someone with the tranny adapter measure it?

If my recall memory is right, I think Marlin told me that the V-6 adapter and gear drive T-case is 1/2" longer. I know that I did not have to have any D-shaft work done when I put mine in 6-7 years ago!!!!!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />

did you have a 2 piece drive shaft at the time? Yes I did and I think I slotted the holes for the center bearing!!! This is stuff I did along time ago so it is hard to remember exactly what I did because of all the mods I have done since!!!!!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
