T case mounts?

Featured Replies

Anyone have any pics of how and where there Tcase is in there subarus?I have mine in, but its sitting too far back and way too low.So now I seem to be dragging it through the mud.As it sits right now it is about 15" from the rear diff.It sits lower than the front diff and higher than the rear diff.Its a nissan transfer case so the handle in 2HI sits right at the back of the cubby in between the front seats.I am thinking of reworking the mount tomorrow, to raise it up and bring it closer to the middle of the car.

 

I am looking for any suggestions for this that doesn't involve making new seat mounts.So if anyone has any pics of how there Tcase was set in place it would be helpfull.

 

My car is an 83 wagon with 8" of lift.

 

 

in this pic you can see where my transfer case currently sits.

EDIT: in the last couple of hours Ive been looking through member's pics with T cases.So far all ive been able to find is turbone's hatch has the T case mounted in the center of the car and pretty high up,but no indication of how much bashing or cutting was needed to get it there.

 

I looked at some pics of subarubrat's 12" lifted brat, but the transfer case seemed to be mounted very high up, or simply was not mounted in the side pics I could find..

 

I looked through roonater's gallery and couldn't find any side pics or any pics that showed the existence of a T case.So good job there hiding it like that.

When I set it in there I bashed out the floor as much as I could to get it to sit higher.But the T case is sitting lower than it could be because I didn't cut a hole for the breather to go through.not to mention I set it way far back after the end of the seat mounts, So I could probably move it forward about 4-6 inches and up 3".Right now the T case is about 12-13" off the ground.

 

its set far back because I set the input flange on the transfer case about an inch behind the seat mounts,because I didn't know that the U joint for the big nissan stuff would fit in the subaru tunnel.

 

I probably can rework it and the sheet metal above it to at least get the transfer case level or slightly higher than the front diff.
