I spoke with advance adapters this morning and sent over pictures. The gentleman assured me theres no way the case could be damaged but he will look them over and quote me for a new clocking plate. Luckily I kept the box apparently they have customers sending cases back to be regeared / reconfigured all the time so thats nice to know i can just ship it back and have it regeared. Looks like the transfer case shifter assembly and exhaust system are next up on the list.
