Using an old trashed t-case as a template, I redrilled the tailhousing to clock the t-case up closer to the body so the skidplate wouldn't have to be so low.  But I might have gone a little farther than necessary...  Fortunately, the bolt holes AREN'T what keeps the t-case from spinning, so the one that's outside the casting doesn't matter.  It still provides the clamping force, and the dowel pin was also moved, so it's just as strong as before.  Aftermarket clocking rings delete the dowel pin, so this is stronger than any of them.
