Re: help with low profile transfercase crossmember
yeah man its simple as to fit!!!!
if you have put the gears in a forward shift transfer u will need to convert it to a top shift, u can buy the kit form low range offroad
u will need to shorted the rear shaft and lengthen the front shaft

I wouldn't suggest hiring a motorhome at all but it's a personal decision. It doesn't work out to be cost effective or very comfortable for that matter, depends how many you're going with I suppose and how much personal space you are willing to sacrifice. You will definately need a vehicle with ...

The levers between the forward shift gear driven case and the chain driven (non add) case appear to be the same with the same flange pattern/size but with changing from a G52 to an r150f gearbox I have been forced to change the transfer to a top shift case with the new rails.
