I can't say it will fit. I can't say it won't fit.
I can say it will be hard to see. You took the pic from inside the case.
You won't see that on the truck. It is on the bottom as well. The diff cups and chassis will help hide it. As far as looking funny. That would be the least of my worries. Just look at procharger. With all that shine he got you don't notice his. :017:

Went home to check my trans case. the bearing pockets & hole look good, but when I set it on the chassis I found out that the FLM chassis was mis-drilled! The holes are too far forward! AAAARGH.

I love FLM's Warranty & Customer Servive. Jamie & Gina are great!

However FLM's products will never match the quality and performance of Unlimited Engineering. I thought they just installed upgraded CNC machining centers too!

So your case is fine but the chassis not working. That is a bummer.
Did you polish the chassis to?

With their equipment it doable to make a perfect product, i don't doubt that.

But their price is unbeatable. Considering the CNC tranny costs less than the molded GPM crap..

Yeah, i allmost forgot Leroy. Procharged.. King of the shiney aluminum..

That's funny Serum! But Yes I am! I've polished nearly every single part. Bulks, dif cases, suspension arms, knuckles, bulk braces, towers, chassis deck (only 1/3 of the way...thankfully), chassis braces, trans case, etc. the Ti skids & supermmaxx shocks are the Titanium color

It will look pretty awesome one it gets assembled!

It sure makes me want to see a pic of it.
How long do we have to wait?
It sounds shiny.

I can't speak for others.
I can say that is sweet looking.
Can't wait to see it together though.
Have to wear shades to look at it. :017:

The waiting is driving me crazy as well. I'm waiting to hear back from FLM on the mis-drilled chassis.
