Re: MY 1959 GMC Fleetside (i think)
Not a napco conv. transfercase, looks like a NP205 conversion. Third lever might be for a pto winch doesn't look like the transfer has a twin stick set up. Has the body man doing the free work seen the cab??

Re: MY 1959 GMC Fleetside (i think)
The body guy did see it, we have to replace some metal but overall the truck is solid. it might have been a Napco but we noticed that the front axel was changed cause the shock placement don't match up and therefore are no longer installed neither is the 4x4 connected. Maybe whoever had the truck b4 replaced the parts on the cheap or whatever they could of gotten their hands on.

Re: MY 1959 GMC Fleetside (i think)
I thinks its similar to the front end in my truck, the build thread shows how I delt with the shocks. Also, you will need to replace the stock box, I ran mine like that but the box can't take the stress and eventually wears out. Newer truck power steering boxes will mount up in the same location. Can't wait to see the build.
