transfer case help.

Hi guys im new here but have been lurking around for a little while now. I've got two questions for you guys. My truck is a 1979 F150 4x4 http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i5.../79F150032.jpg. I purchased the truck fairly recently and have been doing a little tinkering with it. After searching this site and countless other forums I thought I had figured out what transfer case I had. However, my shift pattern doesn't match up with a NP203 so I guess it might just be easier to post a pic and get some help. http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i5.../79F150015.jpg

Also while trying to figure out the pattern and dealing with this darn B&M shifter I screwed up my linkage or something in the transmission. I removed the B&M and tried to move linkage by hand but nothing. Got under truck and tapped on linkage, nothing. Any help would greatly be apperciated.

It's definitely a NP203, the NP205 has an intermediate shaft 3 bolt cover plate on the rear.

thanks for the replys. However, it seems like the case shift pattern is like an H, with neutral in the middle.

it does have lock out hubs on the truck if that would help. and it does not have a drain plug for the t case only a fill hole.
