I am concerned that the 6.5s are going to break my transfer case after hearing many stories of it happening, even with mild 2wd driving...

I have a mighty kong bracket as well as a RT ring (but not with me ATM), I was wondering if anyone has combined the two for maximum bracing?

BTW I have 31s and a stock 1.3L, and I am usually fairly light on the loud pedal...

I ran 31s and 6.5s without any bracing and i was giving it heaps! like serious pig rooting when i first built it... But the Tcase is still tough and not damaged at all. Unless dropping unto rocks the tcase wil be fine with 6.5s and 31s...
imho

hey matey.. when i started running 6:5 - 1's, i was running 32's with front locker. The case smashed in half not long after. Since then, a mate and i made a rocktoy ring, welded this to strengthened mounts, custom made some tonka tough rubber mounts, and upgraded the standard chassis mounts. Now im running a 1.6 vit motor, twin air lockers, 35's all with 6:5-1's..havent had any drama since!

Reckon I'll use both then.

Anyone know how much needs to be cut off the top for a non BL rig?
