Questions on Body Placement: Rebuilt Frame & Body (1 Viewer)

[TurboDiesel69]

I rebuilt my frame and body and put in a 3B with 5-speed.

My body wants to sit way too high and I need some advice/ troubleshooting help.

1) How does my transfer case sit in comparison to yours
2) Hows does the space between the transfer hump and transmission look

Thanks!

You could drop it down some by turning the 2x4s on their side.

Then the body will hit the transmission, or if I just turn the ones in the back the body won't lay even.

I can't tell from your pictures what your clearance is, but, the body does not sit all the way jdown on that bumper. You could also go with a very small noddy lift if you needed.

This is how it sits...

I think that my engine and transmission have been mounted too high. A picture of some transfer case hang, or of how far the transmission should be from the transmission cover (1980 BJ40)
