well the front drive shaft fell out of the the transfer case i guess the 205 isnt bullett proof now what to do will a chevy 205 work!

 

I would just find an auto 205 to put back into it. A chevy uses a differeny input shaft, 32 spline if I am not mistaken. The auto np205 in your truck has a 23 spline.

 

You shot the transfer case and the front driveshaft fell out?

Give us more information as to what's going on so we can better help. Perhaps you can repair what you've got.

 

The nut on the front internal shaft broke off and worked it's self out and now its just laying there on the skid plate and oil dripping everwhere. I took it to the trans shop and he said it would need a new shaft and the t case took apart and put back together to repair it. I though it was the lock out's cause it would go in and out. Bought new ones old ones had not been engaging and the ends were ground off so now thats set. I just need rebuild this one he is going to give me price tommrow I know it will be more then a used one but im thinking it might be better than used one too. What do you guys think ?

 

theres a bucnch of variety for input shafts, try car-part.com with your truck info, year-model, look for salvage yards anywhere in the country, you should be able to locate a reasonable used case, the front output is pricey, there are used parts to be had, if you want more resources

 

An auto NP205 should be easy to find.

I'm betting member "Mark Nixon" has a couple He'd sell since he parts these things out all the time.

 

Geez I now were there are 4 right now but the Dang wrecker want 1200 per . I would hunt down one of the 4x4 clubs in your area and lucker there, plus throw a wanted ad on the forums and on kijijij

 

Off topic but,what is "kijijij"?

 

Oppps Might be only a Canuck thing . Ad site lotta Junk some treasures

 

What would cause the shaft to snap off in a NP205?

What factors could or would cause something like this to happen?

Excessive truck beating ?
Insane amounts of torque/ HP ?
Overzealous snow plowing ?
Lack of maintenance / gear oil level checks ?
Worn out parts?


Not criticizing anyone in any way. I just curious and trying to understand how something like this happens or could be caused to happen.


Thanks

 

Im not having much luck finding a t-case. anyone have one? I plow with the truck but am very easy on it and iv plowed for about 8 years with no problems ever like this

They start out around $250 used on car_part.com. Zbag also on there lists a rebuild at $600. Doesn't the 23 spline gasser 3/4T version with a Dana 60F also use the same setup in the same year?

 

thanks to everyone for the info I found a used one had to drive 140miles but the jetta tdi made that a little easier on the $. It looks good and i paid 200 and the shop is going to put it on for a 100 tommrow or friday so I should be back in business thanks again.

 

It's from a diesel right...?
