203's are a decent enough t-case but they're no where near as bulletproof as a 205 t-case, the former is chain driven, the latter is gear driven.
(Highboys were available with both, though most came equipped with 205's)

ok so since the rad support is bent is it possible to use a good rad support from an 80-86 bronco? my stepdad bought a bodyless bronco that was rolled for the 351/c6/tcase and put it in his jeep and he didnt need the rad support. just looking to see if i can save money by doing this or not, we can modify it if needed.
random side note- i freaking love the way these old trans shifters are!

The biggest issue with the NP-203 is the upper bearings are "slpash" lubed I believe, so at least once a month you should lock it in 4wd and drive it a littel bit.
NOT ON PAVEMENT, BUT ON A DIRT OR GRAVEL ROAD, maybe just on a golf course for that beautiful truck! Any place that has a loose surface......again not on pavement!

Ok so for Christmas I'm getting a 73 f100 WITH a title for 200$, link to ad-http://lakeland.craigslist.org/pts/3447741707.html
Last year at this time my dad had a 53f1 and his super duty, now we have 2 1990 f150s, a 65, a 77, a 2000ish blazer, and now a 73 lol. This makes my 5th truck and 3rd at the moment. How many of you guys are in a situation like this?

Lol I don't know the year of the blazer but its the same body style as the last s10 which I guess is the same.
I'm going to make a build thread tonight or tomorrow probably.
