not that my truck will be near as powerful as some of the built trucks here but, I haven't seen too much said about " motor mounts "
Do the factory mounts hold up to lots of torque ? Are they a weak point in the motor ?
I also haven't seen a lot about transfer cases. Do they require upgrading along with the typical upgrade for the tranny when producing high HP ?

The last part of the driveline that you'll ever need to worry about is that t-case.
That puppy is enormous.
I can't rememebr off hand, but these things are rated for some un-godly amount of lb/ft.
Let me peek around, I know I saw a rediculously high number for those.

Here ya go, I knew it was something ignorant
It'll handle 7,890 lb/ft of input torque and is good for vehicles with up to a 17,500 lb GVWR.
Uhhh, yeah....no breakage there.

Nothing about motor mount though ? maybe even trans mounts. I know I down shift for to high a speed in my 1500 one time and snapped the mount like a twig.
Maybe the fact it's hard to find ( hold up info ) on the mounts means they're pretty stout too??

I havent heard of any need to upgrade the transfer case... not sure what you'd do to it either.

I replaced the gears in my Samurai t-case, down to a 4.3:1. Then I stipped the front output shaft, so that got replaced with a billet piece. All Four Cylinders Of Fury pushing 66 HP baby. Enought to scrare even the mightiest of hamsters and chipmunks.
