It’s fine. I’m not sure how much you can lower with the same transfer case bolts.

Agree. I’d get the washers, measure the thickness, and look at replacing the bolts with that much longer

I usually have to go to Ace for bolts but Lowe’s may work
 
The angle of the front U joint is pretty steep compared to the diff ends angle. Use washers and longer bolts if needed. Id also anti seize the bolts before putting them back in. They are " top of the list" for rusting and taking out the frame inserts especially if you really are in Fl.
 
I think you'll need more than a washer stack. I'd get some 3/16" wall 1" square tube and drill three holes. Paint it your favorite color.

I want some of that. Where do I find 1" square tube that has a 5/8" square hole in it?

Not that I ever would but if I was tasked to make a drop, I'd use 1" x 2" rectangular tube x .120 wall since the frame is 2.5" wide.
 
In a crash, the frame might be twisted into a pretzel, but the ProComp transfer case drop brackets will live on!
Just goes to show that just because you've looked at 100's of steel size drop down menus, that doesn't mean something doesn't exist. After some digging, I found 2 places that do show it exists. I found many more that don't know it does or sell it but 2 do show it.

For now, washers. If you want a more permanent temporary fix, I have the tcase drop kit laying around the garage somewhere i'll send you for the cost of shipping (includes the tcase linkage drop). also have the track bar bracket extension too you could have. wouldn't be able to send until next week though.
