T-case talk

[slownova]

I have a 69 3/4 ton 4x4 and I'm upgrading it a little. As of right now it has a 292 4-speed and the most ghetto rigged tcase set up ever. I have a 350 I'd like to put in it. I also have a 700r4 I'd like to use. It's out of a typhoon awd so I'd like to think I could bolt something up to it? A 205? What do you guys suggest? I use to know quite a bit of this **** but I've forgot alot over the years. I'm not against using a turbo 400 either. The truck orginally had a pto on it and if anyone has one I'd love to put one back on it... Let me know any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks and sorry so long.

Post some pics of the setup on it now.

[slownova]

I will once I get it more torn apart. I'm just trying to figure out what dirrection to go with it. The truck will also have Dana 60f/14r. And more then likely h1 hummer tires.

Why would you go away from the SM465???

Martin

[slownova]

It needs rebuilt and isn't in the best shape. I guess I shouldn't of claimed it's a 4 speed because I'm not sure it is. I need to look into whats really there still

[Hillbilly]

isn't it a 420 marty? Still Way better than any 700 and What kinda cobbled tranny? Divorced T/C or what?

[Hillbilly]

205 adapters to 400s or 700s aren't that common. What are you doing with this truck? I would just use a 208 but I am cheap.

[slownova]

I'm cheap to. I'm just using it sometimes as a work truck and a beater. It has what I can gather 2 transfer cases. It has one shifter by the tranny shifter and one almOst in the back of the cab. I looked under it shortly but I want to get into the truck before I decide what it is. It's from one of our farms so I can only imagine my cousins cobbled together the most ghetto **** ever lol

[82355]

Pics please.

Martin

[slownova]

I knew that was going to happen. That's why I didn't admit to what I got just yet lol. I'm tearing the truck apart and I'll update it with pics. I promise it's not as cool as it sounds.

[Hillbilly]

So someone doubled a regular 205 with a divorced 205? Why would you change that? 1 to 1-2 to 1 and 4 to 1. Just pull the 292 and bolt up the 350.

[slownova]

If that's what they did I will be extremely impressed. My guess is it's a 205 and then a tcase off a dodge or ford whatever was laying around.

[82355]

Dodge and Ford both used NP205's as well.

Martin

[slownova]

I'll post pics. You guys are giving my family way to much credit.

[Hillbilly]

[slownova]

the case is a 205 im guessing.

[82355]

I could use some better pictures of the transmission and the front of the transfer case, but yeah, that is an NP205.

Martin

[slownova]

Yea I need to get it into the shop and get better pics. I don't get what that lever on the side of the tranny is, but I can't get all that good of a look at it

[82355]

It looks like a PTO, but the picture isn't very good.

Martin

[slownova]

It is a pto. Has a shaft that goes all the way to the back of the truck! Score.

[regal403]

Is there some sort of throttle or brake lock for PTO use?

[slownova]

Like a parking brake? Yes. Maybe hand throttle to. I'm trying To figure this thing out.

[regal403]

Like a line lock.

[slownova]

No why?

[regal403]

Just curious if it had one.

[slownova]

What makes you ask if it has a line lock?

[82355]

A lot of straight trucks have a "line lock" for when you are running the PTO to raise the box.

Martin

[slownova]

It's not for a dump box. My guess is a water pump like a firetruck. Can't say out of the 18 trucks with pto's that we have had any have a line lock to lock the from wheels.

[82355]

I am talking grain trucks.

Martin

[slownova]

Ah makes sense. I'm starting to get more time with this thing so I'm figuring more out.

[regal403]

I suppose most of the time the PTO was designed to be engaged, fairly level ground was assumed. Maybe the parking brake would be sufficient.
