The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - 6l90E 2wd 36 spline to 4X4 NP205 27 spline drive coupling idea???

After thinking about this a little more, I came up with a second idea. If I buy a used NP205 case with a 32 spline female input shaft wouldn't I be able to have it re-splined to 36 spline to match the 2wd 6l90e? I could then mate the new np205 to the trans and save a little room in the middle. This will still require an adapter to be made but I could save a few inches and it would be even more stout considering that the lowest spline count would be 36 spline.

Please remember that I am brainstorming here and maybe this could help out some poor guy in the future that is in the same situation.
