Does anyone have a pic of the correct original equipment 4x4 transfer case shifter and boot for 1969?

THanks in advance.

I don't have a picture, but the shifter and boot on my 69 GMC is the same as my 71 and 72 chevrolets.

It actually depends on which transmission and transfer case you have

Mine is the sm465 with the np205.

I have a`70 shifter from a Blazer that had a TH350.It`s completely different from any NP205 shifter I`ve ever seen.It bends over towards the driver and up instead of just bending back.The only 4spd shifter I have was heated and bent back.That`s off a`70 with NP205.You have the Rockwell 221,right?

I think special k is right on the rockwell. If that is the case, i have a pic hiding here somewhere... I will try to find it.

mrmojo32 · 02-22-2009, 06:52 PM

Well the suburban has a sm465 manual trans and what I thought was a NP205 transfer case. I don't know anything about a rockwell. This transfer case has a drain and fill plug that are very close to one another and probably 5/8's wrench on a square head.

I will try to get some pictures.

Ok.... This is what I have:

Just what I needed.... Thanks.

mrmojo32 · 02-22-2009, 09:23 PM

By the way....

WHat is the word on the Rockwell 221 transfer cases? How strong are they compared to say the 205's? I know mine makes a clunk sound when shifting the sm465 sometimes.

From what i understand, they are extremely tough. I think they have straight cut gears also, but i am no expert on them.
