    Had to add 1" spacer to the rear so my bud built skid would fit back on and clear the crawl box mounting plate

    I did but still didn't clear my rails by a little. Probably could have put the skids on without the spacer but wanted a little room

    This is making me want to get the Lefty transfer case more and more so I can find out how it compares to the crawl box.

    Do it! Although all the different options as far as gearing goes I'm pretty excited about. A few different combinations! Lefty would have been so much easier to install. Shit took longer than I thought because the drive shaft place was backed up.

    All in all I paid less than $450 for my drive shafts to be lengthen and shortened.

    I thought it was possible to flat belly it with duals. Might be a little work though. I might consider a lefty case moar research.

    Probably is but that shit was sitting too close. A little room won't hurt anything. Shit.. Rather that shit scratch my skid plate than fuck up whats above it!

    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.
    you can flat belly. Just have to clock the case 15˚. But you have to beat the shit out of the floor boards and do some modification and have a different mount.

    not sure how it would go down with a double cab now that i think about it. All the builds i have seen have been extended cabs..

    Did a few things tonight.

    Crawlorado hood blackout. Sitting in my garage from a local member. Originally for a second gen. Trimmed it up a bit.

    4 ft awning from tepui. Measures out to 4'10. .

    Went to mount my LED light bar and one of the brackets are pretty bent. Going to mess with it when I have more time. Actually going to message the place I bought it from to see if I can get another mount sent.

    Even with it clocked It would not clear the rails on a dc. Still happy with the end result.

    I like it! I wouldn't worry about it either. I ended up clocking my case to almost have a flat belly and still haven't redone my skids. Honestly, I haven't really noticed it hanging up when wheeling... yet... :)

    I think i would have to beat the shit out of the floor boards to make it fit better like monte said. I think your right. It's fine the way it is. Shit's protected..
    Do you remember what size hose you got when you relocated your pump on the wind shield box? I'm going to move the pump
