Have any of you had to pick up a dodge NP205 with the big cast iron adaptor bolted on the front with the huge shaft coupler and install it in a truck without a jack? Dang, you had better eat your wheaties.

maybe he was just holding on too tight!

**Dieselwrencher** · 02-03-2011, 04:48 PM

LMAO! That's funny right there. That reminds me of a few weeks back we were moving a fully dressed 07 5.9 around and it started tipping over. I brought it back up but it was a struggle. I told myself that was pretty dumb since it was going my way. I highly doubt I could hold that 1100lb engine once it got over center.

I had some turtles to go get rid of after that.

dammitmitchell · 02-03-2011, 08:55 PM

he's got a turtle head pokin out! ruuun!

i don't even wanna talk about NP203's and the fact that it took 3 guys and a floor jack to remove one and install another one. Made the NP208 that i lifted the next day feel like a piece of paper!

I hear that. These make the big ol 273's, 271's, and 272's feel light too.

dropped the 208 out of the neighbor's plow truck a few weeks after wrestling the 203 and laughed as i carried it out from under the hoist with one hand.

74chevy4x4 · 02-08-2011, 12:44 PM

I went and sold my old modified 203 to a guy who picked it up off the tailgate of my truck and carried it 5 yards and gently put it down on a pallet....I swore NEVER to piss that guy off! Goodbye 203, hello 208 and I'm never going back!

Vintage Windmills · 02-10-2011, 12:52 AM

How heavy is a Rockwell T221?

**Dieselwrencher** · 02-10-2011, 01:02 AM

It is probably around 140lbs give or take.

BLAZERMAN · 02-11-2011, 01:35 AM

I feel your pain Ryan, I picked up a Dodge tranny awhile back while cleaning up the shop and was sore for 2 days!!

**Dieselwrencher** · 02-11-2011, 02:58 AM

Are those cores or for a project for you?

I've had them taking up space in the shop for 4 years now..they were out of a low milage rollover and in good shape but if I do a Cummins build it will be automatic. Hopefully they will be out of my way tomorrow, got a guy that it suppose to come get them, I only had 400 bucks tied up in the setup.

**Dieselwrencher** · 02-13-2011, 01:46 PM

I know a few guys that would give you double your money or triple for that set up for sure. Let me know if the other guy passes Rob. Ryan.
