I'm looking at doing a 3/4 drop on my 03 rcsb. I crawled underneath the truck to look at the driveline set up and i noticed that the pinion is all most as high as transfer case output, now if i lower it 3-4 inches the pinion will be higher than the output. Has anyone had these problems before, any solutions?

he's saying that the pinion is level with the driveshaft carrier and he's afraid that after lowering the truck his axle/pinnion will sit above the driveshaft carrier.

I have a rcsb and there is no carrier on it just one solid shaft. I'm going to get underneath it again to measure both the pinion and transfercase tail shaft angles.

I have the Belltech complete 2/4 drop kit including the carrier. We did have to remove the OEM ds carrier to install.

I'm planning on running the McGaughy's shackles, hangers and keys if that makes any difference.

Xlr..

Why don't you call the manufacturer for suggestions? They do have a carrier bearing relocator.

I would run that but i don't have a carrier bearing to start with.
