Transfer case is open to options at the moment. I currently have a 208 but I know this is inadequate for the L29 that's going in. Thinking a 205 or 241. Probably depends upon what I can come up with to connect tranny to a transfer case and what deals come my way. Output shaft is a fixed yoke. 6" long, splined half way or so. From a 1997 c3500 dually 2wd.

Update. I ended up mating a NP241 up. Had to use an adapter off from a 700r4/208 and ANOTHER one also because of the shaft length. Trimmed about 1/2-5/8" off the output shaft on the tranny. Shaft still has full spline engagement in the transfer case so no worries there. I did have to cut off the ears on one of the adapters. Worked like a charm. Best part was I had all the parts on hand so no additional cost.
Going in a K5? If so thats going to be the shortest rear driveshaft ever.
No extra cost but a new rear and front driveshaft and moving your cross member. Probably about the same as buying the short (4 x 4)output shaft for the 700R4 and installing it as well (as long as you are able to read the rebuild manual). Your choice though.

Why would I buy an output shaft for a 700r4 when I am installing a 4l80e. For what it's worth, the above picture is the final assembly . 4l80/adapter/adapter/np241. Front and rear drive lines ended up close to the same in length. Helps that the front axle is moved forward a couple inches and the rear axle moved back about six inches (64" springs). Ironically, things will get worse as the 241 is temporary as I build 203/205 doubler in the next coming year.
doubler going to need tail shaft swap for sure ask me how I know . https://ck5.com/forums/threads/4l80...05-ord-doubler-3-sticked-its-all-done.253000/
My mistake, thought it said 4l60E. sorry about that
