New Billet T Case Adaptor Just Rolled Off the Mill Today....PICS.

Any plans to make it so you can use something besides a 32 spline short TH400 version NP205? Like say, a 32 spline long SM465 version NP205?

It's pretty hard to find the NP203 and adapter for behind whatever transmission you're running, let alone trying to find one specific NP205.

Already in the works....your starting to think like me..it's scary.
 
DAMN! That is sweet, I might have to re-think who I was going to buy my adapter from if you are going to be comparably priced. I can't wait to see you in the seller forum /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif

OK, here's a more unrealistic one...

Do you think you can make the stuff to get a TH350 version NP203 to mate up to say a 10 spline SM465? 10 spline (figure 8) 465s seem to be relatively cheap and most people can't give away TH350 version NP203s... so it'd make it a lot easier (cheaper) for people to go doubler. 32 spline 465s from in front of NP208s (round) seem to be relatively inexpensive, what about putting one of them in front of a TH350 version NP203?


Just some more ideas. Putting a doubler behind a 465 seems like a really expensive task. Chances are you have none of the parts needed to do it in your rig already.
 
Kyle, all I can say is WOW! That looks a lot better than what I imagined in my mind from what you described to me previously. VERY nice work. /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif
 
The TH350 version 203 is 27 spline though if I am not mistaken. This would mean you either need a 27 spline output shaft for the SM465 or a 10 or 32 spline input for the 203. As far as I know they never made a 27 spline SM465.

I would think that someone could make a 27 spline output for a SM465. Someone is making a short 32 spline output for them.

That is the intermediate shaft, it's cut from billet stock.

Since you're making the intermediate shafts, can't you spline one side to fit the tranny and the other to fit the xcase on a custom type basis? Maybe a little more expensive but could be cheaper then buying a new xcase or replacing the input on your existing xcase. Your thoughts? /forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

how about a new input shaft for the 203 so it will bolt up behind a 770r4?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm assuming you meant 700r4 and there is currently two ways of doing it without changing the input of the 203. There is an output shaft Advanced Adapters makes for the 700r4 that will shorten it to work with either the 205 or 203 (TH350 versions), or you can buy a spacer. You may or may not have known that, but just throwing it out there as options.

I like that idea. 10 spline input NP 205s are a dime a dozen...and so are 27 spline 203s.

I can't see a weak point using a 27 spline input on the 203, and the 205 could be converted to 32 spline for ultimate strength.
 
Nice work.


Any thoughts on machining the adapter to mate a 4L80 to any version NP205 (preferably the new style round pattern)?

TIA

I've Already Started OE Duplicates.

[/ QUOTE ]So that means that you are going to make ADJUSTABLE duplicates of the adapter that mates my sm465 to my np205? Because that would be kickass to be able to rotate my t-case out of the way of a divorced case behind it! /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
Good job Kyle /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

You are making me re-think about going to doubler. Plus your in Canada and nearby so the shipping shouldn't be too bad. Hell I could drive there in a day and pick it up even /forums/images/graemlins/thinking.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I like to see the wide array of options that you are creating here for everyone as well. It's a big plus compared to what some of the other companies are doing. If by using your products we can use the parts we already have instead of hunting for new ones I'm sure that your going to get swamped soon. Hope you can keep up with the demand. /forums/images/graemlins/deal.gif
 
I am not longer without a god /forums/images/graemlins/bow.gif /forums/images/graemlins/bow.gif

Now make a 465-203 adaptor and you got yourself an order /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

any thoughts on a different intermediate shaft splinage? Namely the 203 to a Ford 31 spline? High Pinion 60 requires driver side drop case. Could flip a Chevy unit but then you have to contend with the shifters being on the bottom.
 
My TH350/NP205 combo uses a double female coupler. Seems to me a 10 spline 465/205 does the same thing.

Why not just make couplers to attach different setups? I haven't gotten a chance to look at one yet, but it seems like a 32 spline 465 would have an output shaft that doesn't stick out too far so making the doubler combo obnoxiously long wouldn't be a big deal.

If Kyle was slick, he could make the mating piece of every adapter so that it could be connected to the mating piece of every other transmission or transfer case. In other words, make it so the center part of the adapter was the only "different" piece for each setup.

It'd take some serious thought at the start, but if you were slick it could be done. I suspect the startup costs would be quite high but once it was ready to go I'm willing to bet it wouldn't cost much to do. There are some combinations where you wouldn't have to do this (like the stock TH350/NP203 combo).


For what it costs the average guy to go ORD doubler (right around $1500 unless you've got the right transfer cases, transmission, and adapter already) you might as well pony up and buy an aftermarket transfer case. And if you've got that much money tied up in it you might as well just scrap a traditional transfer case idea and go for a gear reduction splitter since chances are you don't drive it over 35mph anymore anyway.
 
don't know. The amount of splineage is fairly short, it only goes into the tcase like 2 or 3". 208/241 adapters are long.
 
The 32 spline 465/NP205's that come from the factory are pretty long, they use the longer NP205 input.

Everyone who has a SM465, fear not...I have many tricks up my sleeve, which includes being able to clock a 203 beind a 465 with a VERY short adaptor, for a very reasonable price.

Exactly...you can buy the Chev 203/205 combo, and decide to go to a Ford 203 later, and all you'd ever have to change is the NP203 adaptor plate, within reason, everything is interchageable.

As far as oiling issues, Clocking your NP205 flat will not cause any adverse problems, which is what most of the 6* increments was designed for. As far as clocking your NP203 90* or upside down, many have run it successfully, you just have to tap a new hole for a fill plug.
