hellos all soon i am about to put gears into my transfer case an while doing so I was thinking on lifting my transfer case to allow a flat belly pan
which brings me to the question is the a mob over in the states that make high pinion centres for WT diffs
I was thinking on doing this so there less chance on binding
cheers

you wont have any issues with them binding with the regular low pinion's

We lifted the case to have a flat belly pan in a "friend of Greg's car" it runs OME springs and longer shackles. Stock wheelbase SWB, stock pinion angle.
The rear driveshaft is pretty steep, but is seems fine. The car has done about 4 days of hard work and plenty of road driving.
You could fit a jimny or Coil sierra front diff to get a high pinion, but it would be very weak in that application. Ratios are 4.09, 4.1 and a mythical 4.3 (auto jimny but most seem to have 4.1)

when you put in toys you will have a high pinion option
Seriously I havnt seen any high pinion zook diffs besides coilys but I dont have any experience with them.
