Re: Napco questions
If it is a true NAPCO, "NAPCO" will be cast into the axle housings and transfer case. Like was said above, the gearing is not highway friendly. An acquaintance had one that she drove every day to school back in the day. At 45 mph, the motor was wound up pretty tight. As I recall, the gear ratio in the axles was even higher than 4,56, more in the neighborhood of 5.xx so even a tall tire is little help.
A few weeks ago I found a set of axles and transfer case on eBay out of Wisconsin. The seller was looking to get $1500 just for the parts. From a collectable standpoint it works be cool and worth saving from the scrap yard. As a driver, you'd be better off switching to modern axles if you want to build a 4wd
