Drivetrain on a quadravan?

I just purchased a 79 Pathfinder E250 with a 460 and C6. Anyone know what axles and transfer case were used on them? I haven't even picked it up yet (not that I would know even if it ran over me), but just wondering if anyone has experience with these animals and knows the drivetrain parts.

You might want to ask the seller

A 3/4 ton 4x4 TRUCK in 79 would have a D44 up front, D60 rear and an NP205 T-Case, but my knowledge only goes as far as trucks, don't know if that info extends to Vans, but seems like it'd be the same.

Get some pics up here when you get it home.

Pathfinder-vans.com confirms the D44 in the front and D60 in the rear. If I knew how to post pics I would. Thanks, Steve.

and as to the t-case, do you have selectable hubs for 4x4 r no???? selectable=np205 solid caps=np203 full time 4x4 case, or just check the **** on the 4x4 lever. if it has hi and low its a 205. if it has 4hi, 4hi lock, neutral, and 4 low lock its a 203.

and btw, 4x4 vans are awesome. almost bought one before i bought my old f350. wish i would've.

Vans got a lot of leftover parts through the years so I wouldnt be surprised if it had a D21 t-case but otherwise Np205 or 203 are your only options.

I'm waiting to here from a couple of towing services I contacted through craigslist so I get the thing transported from MA to my house. Then I can take a closer look at this beast.
