    Default NP205 swap

    SB350 -> T98 -> divorced NP205. Aside from the prices which one? Not sure of correct spline counts for my application. Also cant tell if these are married or divorced.

    Those are all married. If you're getting a divorce 205 look for one from a 1969-1975 International pickup or Travelall. If it were me running a Chevy 350 I would look for a used SM465/NP205 combo and it would bolt right up to the engine, you would just have to change your transmission crossmember. The SM465 is a Chevy truck 4 speed and they were married to a NP205 with a right hand front output. You would also need two drivelines made afterwards. You could also adapt your stock e brake set up to this. Get the modified NP205 shift rails that let you control each rail separately. You could then modify your stock Tcase shifters and e brake handle to keep the interior relatively stock looking.

    Good. That is the much easier way with a 350 already installed. There are threads on getting the stock e brake adapted to the back of a 205. I know I've seen somewhere that someone adapted the stock M715 ebrake/t-case shifter bracket to the side of the SM465. They then did the shift rail conversion on the 205, modified the ebrake and t case shifter linkages and it looked relatively stock from the drivers seat.

    Congrats Teking on your find. I know your search is resolved. But the following info is for search results in the future.
    Knowing my divorced 205 was out of a Dodge I could not remember what the seller said it was out of. This is from Offroad Design's website. Good info below..

    Dodge used divorced NP205's from '69-'74 in their entire truck line, then used married NP205's only in the W250 and W350 trucks from '80-'93.
