Transfer case *****

I was scrounging in the junkyard today getting parts for my Subaru that's not running and got distracted in the Bumpside and Dentside section of the yard. I picked up a clutch linkage rod (is that the part that's called the z-bar?) that goes down through the floor from the clutch pedal assembly. Mine is pretty worn. Anyway, while I was in that manual truck I glanced around and my covetous eyes fell upon the transfer case shift ****. I had to have it, so it came home with me too.

Now my question is, what years or other factors determine which of these ***** came in a truck? They both have the NP205 shift pattern on them. The left one is the one from my Bronco and the right one is the "new" one. I wanted it because it more closely matched the shape and texture of the shift **** I have on my T18 and my lizard brain likes the rounded shape and smooth texture better under hand.

The one on the right was used on the high boy and most if not all 76 and older.

The one on the right must have started in 77 I'd guess.

My '79 had one like the one on the left.
My '76 has one like on the right.
'77 might have been a split year, early right late left.
