so i think iv decided on what i want to go with so far:

front range off road T-case crosmember/skid plate combo ($299)
dr smash triple shifterer kit (~$400)
daves off road performance shift knobs X3 ($45)
and some other miscellaneous stuff

but theres one more question, i have a r150f tranny with a vf1a transfer, im told i have to have an adapter and a gear driven transfer behind the tranny and stock chain driven transfer, then the 10 degree adapter between the two transfer cases. is there any way i can use the same case i have now? or do i HAVE to add a gear driven one? id rather not have to use an adapter because it will put the shifter back further and i would then have to cut the floor and mod the center console defeating the purpose of the dr smash triple shifter...

In order to do dual cases behind a V6, you need an adapter to put a 4 cyl reduction box behind your V6 transmission, then another adapter to make the output of the reduction box like the output of the transmission so the second case can bolt to it.

For the second case, you can use either a gear drive case with an MC07 adapter or a chain drive case with the MC10-R10 adapter.

When that happens you get one case running with too much oil and leaking out the top and the other case running with not enough oil.

Not sure how thick the first adapter is. I know the adapter, the crawlbox, and the second adapter add about 6.5".
