Would you use this spline adapter?
here is a pic of the spline adapter I got with my 205 transfercase adapter for my SM465 swap. Would you use this or scrap it and get a new one? The splines on the other side are perfect. Which side receives more abuse, the tcase or the trans?

Re: Would you use this spline adapter?
From what I can determine, I'd say get a new one

Re: Would you use this spline adapter?
Last I heard you could still get one of those from your local GM parts department for about $50.
Really hard to tell from the pics how bad it is but the way I look at it, I'd gladly pay $50 to not have to yank the transfer case out to replace that coupler sleeve later on.
