Also provides the option of 2wd low range.

so do you just run a stick to each shift tube( wrong termonalage) so you can shift each on seperate. cuz right now the shifter is attached to a rod that is connected to both shift tubes by a flat piece of metal. so do you remove the flat connector and run a rod from each shifter to each shift tube? got it????

Some modifications have to be done to the 'shift rails' as well, but you have the concept.

ok the f250 of my dads the np205 has 4low then Nuetral then 2 High then 4 High. the Transfer case in my truck has only 4 wheel drive and 2 wheel drive. do you have to have a transfer case like the 205 (with all the geras) to install a twin stick? Is my transfer case just a power splitter preety much

Ahhhh, you have a D21 single speede case. That only has 4wd, and 2wd, and does not have a low range. pretty sure there is nothing really available for the 21. Gonna be a good idea to install some sort of two speed case in there, before you consider any sort of twin stick modification.
Anyway, a second stick would really have nothing to control since there is no low range. Maybe just front output, but I have never had one apart. Since they are not very desireable, I would imagine many others have never tried this modification on these units either.

well ya i thought so only thing its good for is just knowing you can slam it into 4 whenever instead of the gears. so will the 205 take the same marriage yoke as the 21. the piece from the np435 to the tcase.

See if this helps a little. Might get you pointed in the right direction.
Most of the NP, and BW t-cases used the common 6 bolt pattern, but the D21 had a funky 4 bolt pattern similar to the 2wd models, so i do believe there are some differences, but I am not 100%. I do know that there were 205's behind 435's so it is a possible modification, I am just not sure how much is involved. I am assuming that this is a married unit and not remote. Remote (divorced) makes it easy. No ad adapters just a slight change to the driveshaft(s).

75, you beat me to posting that link. That is the best "how-to" of a twin stick Ive ever found.

BTW, where did Ivan go?
