No one has answered me yet, is it possible to raise the transfercase a bit without a drivetrain lift or something? I mean if its simply botled on I could drill/tap new holes and mount it higher I guess. 1996 T100, Mickey Thomson Classics, Bridgestone Dueler AT 265/75/16, custom offroad KC's.

I mean if its simply botled on I could drill/tap new holes and mount it higher I guess. It's simply bolted to the transmission, which is simply bolted to the engine. The xmember doesn't support it in thin air so much as support it in line with everything it's attached to, so no, not really without lifting the whole drivetrain. However, Budbuilt does offer a clocking adapter for a Tacoma that will increase the clearance at the tcase by rotating it, but I can't verify it will work on a T100. ~Adam 96 T100: D44, lockers and stuff Re: Skid Plates [Re: adam] #780787 01/19/07 05:02 PM Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 1,489 Seattle Jake97T Body Damage is Cool these "clocking" setups, wouldnt they interfere with the torsion bracket inside of the frame rail? even if budbuilts system could be adapted...

He hasn't built the T100/Tundra page yet, although I'm glad to see the trac-bar for us is a regular offering now. ~Adam 96 T100: D44, lockers and stuff Re: Skid Plates [Re: CJMT100] #780790 01/19/07 10:28 PM Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 1,489 Seattle Jake97T Body Damage is Cool didnt know he was working on T100/Tundra stuff...

Not really because you need to keep the first section of the rear drive shaft in line with the transmission or you will get vibrations. That's why Brew moved the center support bearing up on his. On mine when I had the 2" bodylift, I moved the engine mounts up 2" and the t-case mount up 1", and this pretty much kept that rear shaft in line back to the center support as well.
