Shifter knob for np205

My shifter for 4wheel drive was missing when I bought my truck. Is this the correct shift pattern?

Re: Shifter knob for np205

cool thanks.

Dumb question. So when I am not in 4Wheel drive, just normal driving. Should I be neutral or 2WD High?

If you are in neutrol you won't go far, unless you have a twin stick. Then it is a whole different ball game... J.

2HI. Neutral is just that, no power to any wheels.

Ok cool thanks. On another note, my transfer case has a slight leak. How easy is it to throw new seals in it? Or should I take it to a tranny shop and have them do it?

Re: Shifter knob for np205

A few years back when everyone at work had the 4WD shifter knobs in their truck, (now there on the dash) we would be jokesters, and put the shifter in neutral - and then sit there and laugh at the guy trying to figure out why his truck wasn't moving!

Re: Shifter knob for np205

NP205s are notorious for leaking for a lot of reasons. You often find that the seals that keep the trans fluid in the trany and the 205 fluid in the transfercase---leak so that the transfercase winds up with trany fluid in it. If it is just a very minor leak-drop or so---I wouldn't mess with it.
