That involves axles twisted like soft serve cones, rigs upside down and on fire, and multiple life threatening injuries. But I'll let you know...

hahahah, nah, i will go until my fenders/rockers/etc tell me not to go any farther. my old man would kill me if i beat my truck up....its him more than me, i dont mind a few dents here and there, its just a truck i guess.....but he gave it to me, and its still in his name.....

i got more tech.....how difficult...well, expensive is it to marry a np435/t18 to a np205...i ask because i want all that under there to be compact.....or a, i just as well off to use it the divorced way.

one more....73 scout....t-18?...right?

Its easy to marry a divorced np-435 to a np205 x-case, the ebronc guys do it all the time. You just need to mill the rear housing, or buy one. I know a guy out my way who sets them set up for that, all you gotta do is bolt them on. Novak sells them too. Don't know the details, I've always run divorced, but I know its as simple as bolting the modified rear housing onto your np (I belive it uses a differnt output shaft as well) and hooking up your x-case.

Seems like it would be simpler to me to find an np-435 already married to an np-205. Othwise, the only cost is the rear adapter to convert a divorced unit to a married. I don't know what that costs off-hand but the ebronc guys will.

...you should check out 350samurai's rig on pirate, its a sami with a 350, coils, 44's and rockwells with an exo. he sover here on the east coast, so he gets it pretty hard. theres a good vid of him rollin on tellico's slickrock somwhere on pirate


the married 435/t-18 to a 205's are usually found in 73-79 pickups(non "highboys"), and 78-79 broncs

Rocks on a sami!? Thats sick. If he went with rocks don't know why he stuck with a small block. Although that lack of weight does make up for allot of horse...
