what IS THIS?!

i

got this transfer case thinking it was a divorced 205...til i got it...then i slowly realized that this this doesnt even look close to a 205...so what is it? is it junk? how can you twin stick THIS? could it possibly be a dana 20? i know i have never seen one under a truck before, but its definately a 2-speed.

it currently resides in a 76 highboy frame. other than that i know nothing about it. i was hoping you'd chime in, i know you had something other than a 205 like everyone else runs...so what can you tell me about these other t-cases you mentioned? i only have a little experience with the NP cases. thanks man....btw, check out my gallery i just got a new truck. starting point for my project. i think its a good one but i'd like some opinions on it. prolly be starting a thread about it in the near future when i have more pics of it.

From what I understand it doesn't have as big of a following as the 205 however it is suposed to be just as strong as the New Process.

Not sure if parts are easy to come by, just have to check the local parts shops.

no, they are truck springs....just a lot of them...thats my SAFE alternative to blocks til i can afford my bags and/or get my welder hooked up. not a flexy suspension but it gets the job done.

i do have a buddy that has a 78 ford with dumptruck springs under it, its only got 3 springs and he sits 3" taller than me with my 15....but his rides REALLY rough.
