would a np205 divorced tcase out of a 1972 f250 work in a 73-79 truck ?

 

73-early 77 is divorced, they got married to the trans late 77 to 79. Are you trying to find out if you can get the divorced one to get married with the trans adapter?

All Highboys had divorced transfer cases, as opposed to married transfer
cases. A married transfer case is bolted directly to the transmission. A
divorced transfer case is bolted onto its own cross-member, and is
separated from the transmission by a driveshaft.

Highboys had Dana 24 part-time transfer cases from 1967-1973, and either the standard NP205 part-time or optional NP203 full-time transfer cases from 1973-1977.5.
The NP205 is the strongest and most desirable factory transfer case.

The Dana 24 is a cast-iron, gear-driven, part-time, 2-speed case with
1.86:1 gears. The NP203 is a chain-driven, full-time, 2-speed case with
2.00:1 gears. The NP205 is a cast-iron, gear-driven, part-time, 2-speed
case with 1.96:1 gears.

Highboys had either a 3-speed Ford Toploader manual (1967-1971), the
NP-435 4x2 4-speed manual (1967-1977.5 -- yes, the 4x4 got the 4x2
transmission), or the optional SelectShift Cruise-O-Matic C-6 in
1973-1977.5. The reason that 4x2 transmissions were used in these 4x4's
was due to the divorced transfer case. The NP-435 was optional in
1967-1971, and standard in 1972-1977.5.

Toploader Models (Engines): RAN-E1 (240 1V), RAN-G1 (240 1V), RAT-G
(300 1V, 360 2V), RAT-H (300 1V, 360 2V)

Toploader Gear Ratios (1,2,3,R): 2.99, 1.75, 1.00, 3.17
NP-435 Gear Ratios: (1,2,3,4,R): 6.69, 3.34, 1.79, 1.00, 8.00
Cruise-O-Matic Gear Ratios: (1,2,3,R): 2.46, 1.46, 1.00, 2.20

 

I'm trying to do a 4wd swap and I have 4x4 truck with an automatic trans with married transfer case but I want to use the 4 speed trans in the 2wd truck so I was wonder if a divorced tcase out of a 72 would work driveshafts come with the divorced tcase

 

First off, what year is your truck.? f150 or f250? And I would have to say no it won,t work. How do you plan on hanging a big heavy T case?

 

2wd is 1976 f250 4wd is 1979 f250
