Topic: Clocking Transfercase 30*

[louis]

Hey there everyone. I was recently looking at doing a dual case setup and wanted to clock my transfercase so i could run a flat belly skid. The only issue is i need to clock it about 30*.
Now i have read about people doing this already and i know it has been done, But how?!?!
I know that inchworms v6 to 4cyl adapter gets you 10* and the marlin reduction case adapter gets you another 10*. But simple math tells me this is only 20* when ive read and am looking for 30*.

I thought there was an clocking ring put out a little while ago or something like that??
And ideas? thanks,

Hopefully somebody from marlin will pipe up, but there may well be oiling issues with being clocked so far.  Most people have no problem obtaining a flat belly with a minimal body lift or drivetrain lift and a 10* rotation.

I talked to the guys at inchworm today and was told that there isnt any way to do a 30* without doing tripples so im going to do a 20* and do a little lifting to get it to clear. My goal is to run a COmpletly flat bottom out of 3/8.
Anyone build such a thing? Ive read a few truggy builds with flat bottoms but there dedicated trailor queens and this has to be a DD so i think 20* is best to keep the cases alive.
I wonder what my gas mileae is going to be like when im done with this

Clocking a case 10* gets the bottom end of your T-case level with the bottom of the tranny. Which would normally be considered flat. Why do you need 20* or 30*. What is that going to get you?

Most of the time if someone wants a flat belly, clock the case and then raise the tranny. But clocking the T-case any more than that doesn't get you anything but a really bad pinion angle.

This is the adapter that you need!!

Looks cool, but like I said, why would you ever need more then 10*. Everything beyond that is counter productive.

I agree.  But this is what he was asking about.

just run the 10* clock and push the cases and trans up to flat... thats what I did with no problems at all...

Are you sure the v6 adapter from inchworm rotates the whole assembly another 10 degrees?

Why would it do that?
