Short and chubby, like a tuna can. No big secret. But it is funny.

We call that a chode.....

Thanks for being understanding Chris.
I really appreciate being able to discuss this without everyone getting all butt hurt.
You guys at ORD are true Professionals!

So, uh, what is the total length on that "beastly shaft" for the Magnum box? AND, how much for just the shaft?

See where I'm going?

Hmmmm, our existing shaft is too short for your box but I see where you're going and we have been there. It'll take a while but it's likely.

lol. i was actually going to do that same quote.


and damn this thread. just when i get my sights set on the 241-205 setup. you spring something else on me..

If it makes you feel better, I'm pretty sure the Magnum is going to be the end of the development process for a while, we have minor details to tune in but conceptually it may be as good as it's going to get for a dual T-case system. If you get one now, you could be done for good!

 

[swedester]

sub´d!now all we need is build info/tech on everyones homemade doublers to make it complete.
that magnum box sure looks interesting,guess I better start saving up some $...

i think i'd still go with the 241 setup.
i'll save the magnum for a "one day i **** gold coins build".

It's not built to be cheap or compete with any other underdrive, it's built to be the strongest most versatile transfer case system there is and the price really isn't out of line for what it does. In fact we might be selling it cheap to start with. Complete Magnum box WITH input conversion for the NP205 is $1990. It comes with free TCT too.

I am slow so bear with me please. Is this just the Magnum front part w/ 205 input conversion? or a complete setup ready to bolt in?

Also this thread ROXX!! Very informative and good data.

I always saw myself building an ORD 203/205. To me weight/length is not an issue. It was to go into a heavy '80's crewcab dually with a 12v Cummins plus a plethora of weight adding devices. lol Something tht may be better off starting life out as a C70 double framed and duece & 1/2 axles lol

@ this point I will stop hyjacking this thread! I am of the mind of overkill it b4 u break it. I am now debating if I "need" a magnum I didn't intend on using anything but all hi or all lo. But, I DO like strength.... I even started researching cryo frozen parts for strength a while back. Forgot what I researched, need to re-research again.

Needless to say I will be watching this thread!

P.S. ORD ROXX!!

On a 241/205 setup, does the doner 241 have to be a pass side drop? Im starting to collect parts to do this and was wondering, I have a th400 with a round 205 behind it now, so does it matter if the 241 is pass or driver drop ?

We're setup for driver's drop 241's regardless of what 205 you're using, we chose that because they are much more common than the passenger drop ones.

Sweet our local pick n pulls are full of them.

Thanks Chris

 

[Smokinthehippies]

just saw this brought up in a thread on pirate.

We're doing another run of them in December; John-JB Conversions

hmmm. a 241 or a magnum into a lomax 205! wouldnt that gearing be fun!

my understanding is if you call and talk to them there is a list you can get on? just a headsup for you guys.

 

[nvrenuf]

I want one soooooooo bad. :drool:

The price is supposed to be around $2200.

 

[Smokinthehippies]

on a doubler, low low would be 6:1 on the 203 version.
if my math is correct looks like a 241 with lomax would put it around 8.1 :1 !!

 

[nvrenuf]

on a doubler....

With a 4spd

 

[MTBLAZER89]

Has anybody else seen Duffys new box? Its like the Black box, but you DIY with the planetaries from a 241. $699 seems like a pretty good price! My heart was really set on a Magnum box, but I could break this one twice

Seems like a good budget option for additional gearing and somebody who isn't running intense amount of power and breaking 32 spline stuff often like me.

[Kocher93]

I was looking at that box. So I buy a 241 and use the internals for that? And can that go infront of a a 241? If so that may be on my list.

 

[MTBLAZER89]

I believe it is intended to go in front of a 205 or Dana 300.

 

[Kocher93]

There goes my dreams, 241 241 doubler it is
