208 transfer case

[Mr plow1985]

hello all just like to say this place is great and and i have many chevy trucks over the years, right now i have a 1973 gmc 3/4 ton black 2 wheeler and a 1985 chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 with plow. The question I have is a 208 xcase out of a auto the same as a stick can i pull the one out of the stick and put in the one that came from the auto will they both swap.

[Mr plow1985]

sorry about the question what I really want to now is if the input shaft that goes into the xcase from a stick is the same from an auto the one in the truck is a stick and my friend gave me one out of an auto and if I switch it will I run into problums

should be a 10 spline output on the 4spd and depending on the transmission the 208 came off of it is either going to be 27 or 32 spline. that and the adapters are or should be different. The 73 should be like a figure 8 on both ends and the 85 should be round on both sides if iff a 400 or square on one round on the other if it s a 350 trans.... a newer 4 spd could work, generally are 32 spline, so to answer no it won't with what you got now. ,

[Mr plow1985]

thanks thats what I needed to know well I gues I have a extra xcase that I cant use right now

The SM465 4spd had 3 output shaft options
1-splined and threaded for a bolt on yoke. (2wd)
2-short course spline[10??] (np205 and np203 and???)
3-long fine 32 spline shaft (np208and???)
if you look at advanc adapters transfer case adapter page
it gets a little more in depth.
