Default Am I f*cked or what?

well i went out side looking for my transfer case control module. trying to find out a way to bypass the 4wd light for when i do the t56 swap. here is what i found.






so is this stuff gonna be in the way of my clutch pedal? is there anyway to move it? it all looks pretty tight in there not to mention my adjustable pedals with its big *** actuator on the left side. anybody else have this stuf?

It shouldn't be in the way. I'm not sure about the adjustable pedals, but the electrical box there should be in every truck since it's the mid bused electrical center.

so what about the big *** actutor on the side of the pedal? does the clutch pedal curve over the electrical box or go to the right side of it?

well that sounds logical and i thought about it. buut i would have to swap out my front end also or else it would kinda negate the whole thing. my front end doesn't disconnect like 4wd guys do. so it would still be turning. not to mention i would have to rewire a bunch of crap unless i used a floor shift type. but then i would have to figure out a way to not have to cut up my console for the floor shifter to work. oh and if i swapped axles in the front i would have to wire it up too. lol just too much ****. and i don't go off road or anything but MAYBE once a year.
