Not sure of the clearance, you could eye-ball it looking at the top shift block-off plate on your existing t-case and see if the existing shift pattern may fit. If close, you could bend the shifter forward, or pick up a dog leg shifter from Marlin:

Body Damage is Cool


I once dropped an RF1A transfer case on my basement stairs, causing a fracture in one of the shifter rails. I put in my truck anyway, where it served for about a year before the rail broke. I salvaged a shift rail from another forward shifter case I had sitting around and did the repairs using the article at the link referenced above for guidance. Like so much about this forum, it was a great help. -- Matt
