Dang it!!! That's all I needed was more options
What trucks have the NP-205? As far as the transfer case mounting goes, is there any need to alter the cross member?
If you want to run a NP-205 then do a classic bronco "Google search" you will learn a lot.
The 205 is very strong but not geared too low. It is big and will typically cause you to run your exhaust down passenger side.
But many have made it work very well for them.
You would see them in the 70's and 80's maybe even a few cab and chassis trucks well into the 90's. A lot of 70's trucks also had 203's and 208's....you don't want those....well maybe the range box off the 203 but that's it.
So....205 is great....but in regards to the crossmember..... it ain't a bolt on. Might be worth it to you though. Check into it. Lots of info here at CB on it,
