"Clocking" C6/205

mountainview68 · Apr 13, 2006

Can someone help me out with a little info on this. I have a C6 with the 8 3/4" adapter and I am going to mate it to a 205. I have heard people say you need to clock the transfer case to raise up the front output. This will allow the t case to be parallel to the frame with about a 1/4" clearance. I thought that there was a pin that was on the adapter that lined up with the t case so you can only mount it in a certain position. Do you need to buy a special adapter or something???

I don't have one to look at to verify how hard it is to do but the adapter is round which makes it relatively easy to clock. I think the biggest issue will be getting it adjusted so the front driveline will clear. We tried to put one in with the short adapter and pulled it back out because the driveline was hitting the tranny.

Hey saddleup, did the cv hit the edge of the trans pan? I pulled one out of an F-150 with the short adapter. It didn't have a cv joint and it worked. I have it sitting in my bronco now, with no driveshaft. I just wondered if you thought it would work ok with a regular driveshaft (no cv)? You seem to know alot about c-6's and 205's so I thought I'd see what you think.

Yes, I think it would work without the cv. To run without the CV though you need to rotate the housing down to get the right driveline angles.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for the info saddleup
