How can I ID my tranfsfer case? NP205, etc?

[platapus]

How do you tell what transfer case is what? Can they me IDed by apperance (such as trannys TH350 / th400) Are transfer cases stamped?

Thanks

Theres a circular metal disc on the back of the transfer case that will have the model number stamped on it.

205 t case is best identified by a small circle on the backside with 3 bolts holding it on. About 2" in diameter.

There is sometimes a tag on the back of the transfercase to tell you what you have. Alot of times its missing.

All aluminum, 208 or a 241.

NP203? Are they any good? I dont know much about the different types of transfer cases?
Sorry for the hugh pic.

There ya go!

And now cut that picture resolution in half (or quarter)!

They are a full-time 4wd case. Decent in strength but not really good or bad.
Just different.

It can be converted to part-time 4wd but for the expense and effort, it's easier to switch to a different case.
If it's already been converted, then... *shrug* run it till it breaks.

Someone has already converted it, and added warn hubs.

 

[goldwing2000]

Good enough. Run it till it breaks and then convert to an NP205.
