Well I finally did it

[fierodude]

Well I broke the K-5 good this time I had to tow her home I felt so ashamed it was by a ford. Me and a couple of buddy’s from school thought we'd have a bit of fun in the fresh snow since they let us out early because no one showed up I just got all 4 wheels on the trail then snap crackle pop broken drive train I thought I was just the front shaft so I unlocked the hubs backed up and heard another crack the transfer case decided it didn’t like the trany anymore the adapter between them broke so now I’m not sure if I want to replace that adapter or fork out some cash and get an NV4500 and a JB conversions NP205 I’ll try to get pics when I pull the wreckage out of the truck but if anyone has or knows were I can find either the adapter or a early Chevy NV4500 any help would be appreciated

My sympathies to ya ... get the sucker fixed by spring as I want to see it "fly" again.

[lowrad]

Shitty buzz mang...breakin shit can be fun...but I find most of the time ya break your shit doing the simplest things...and shit you did on the trail that you swore and everyone else wonder why you didn't break never amounts to anything..lmao.

[mighty4]

that sucks man, hopefully you can ge tit fixed and going soon!

[fierodude]

the joy of owning a 30 year old truck everything is already worn out



i was thinking maby i could fix it with duct tape and super glue

[bigbluebronco]

Now now no bashing the fords.LOL. I know they get a bad rap but my bronco is pretty bad ass and will be more so come the spring. Maybe it is time to do a doubler conversion in it. Here is a link with some info.

ummm ford.....nope......just cant bring myself to not bash......lol....jk but ya man hopefully you get that rig fixed up!

like i mean you can try the duct tape, but i dont even think red would recommend that...lol!

[thompy]

wht kinda hedders do you have on that looks like they have a block off

[wranglerboy]

Holy Crap! Malcolme! You're still alive? Where ya been?

[fierodude]

I got the case off and man did I ever screw that adapter its got a couple of other cracks in it here’s a pic of half of it the other half is holding the trany in place so I’m gona pull the trany too and I just can't wait to pull out a 200lb cast iron trany lol



and as for fords the only ones I like are the seventies era full sizes so I’ll let yours go but this one was a new 1 ton now I just got to rip on them

The headers are just some generic crapy headers but I built the rest of the exhaust system my self the block off is just a cut out I made so I can be really obnoxious when I want to be, plus I love the sound of a uncorked headers

[fierodude]

I don't have class tomorrow so I’m going to spend the day scrap yarding does any know of any yards that would have any pre '80 4x4 Chevy’s the only one I can think of is the one in kaladar but I don't remember seeing any sm465 np205 combo's there last time I was there

[wranglerboy]

Try Sidney's in Trenton, they might have something in there right now. Call and ask em.
One place that should is Dom's in Oshawa!

[hercrigger]

Dom's has a LOT of vehicles. Was there a few weeks ago lookin for an XJ Dana 44 but I remember seeing a lot of full size trucks as well.

[fierodude]

today was a pretty fruitless day i couldn't find 1 np205 let alone an adapter but i found more np203's than a forest has tree's so now i'm thinking maby a 203-205 doubler but i still haven't made up my mind yet i think i'll call dom's tomorrow sounds like i may have some luck there does anybody have the number?

[wranglerboy]

Used to have it, I'll check but I don't think I have it anymore. I believe you can get it from the web, google auto recyclers/wreckers in Oshawa. I'm pretty sure they have a web site.
