TJ with belly up and 241 transfer case

[Toad]

I have a 2006 TJ six speed manual with 231 in it. I am getting ready to swap the 241OR Rubicon case into it. I know I will have clearance issues with the body. What the best option? Body lift or lower the transfer case. I am leaning more towards lowering the transfer case an inch just for driveline angles. I am running a 4 inch LCG Pro suspension kit. Rear axle will be pushed as far back as I can.

I had a 1” body lift and a teraflex belly pan in mine and there was close to an inch clearance on the tub and the rubicon case

I prefer Savvy , Barnes...or Undercover fab works for the belly skid over anything teraflex, anything but teraflex.

Beat me to it.

You might be able to dimple the body for clearance w/out a body lift. Maybe. I just did a BL and MML at the same time as the tummy tuck. But I've seen the same belly skid I have, used with the 241OR and w/out a BL by making clearance on the tub.

I’ll be selling it once it is swapped. Probably this summer though. Was completely rebuilt a couple thousand miles ago.
