Text me, I'm free tomorrow
Doubler install successful. Thanks alot Tommy. It was alot easier than I was expecting. I plan to measure for shafts tomorrow and see waht BVD can do for me.
I have not mounted up the shifters yet, but hopefully they will work.
Think I can get away with just a xmember under the doubler adapter plate? or do I need a support on the 205 too? I have probably asked that question before. I think I do.
I tucks up nicely, higher than I thought it would. I beat up on the underbody, but I do not think I had too.
i would run a support off of the 205 also, not only for weight but also for the added torque, i had issues with breaking cross members until i added one and sharpe kept breaking his transmissions
Most people seem to have issues if they do not support the 205. There are 2 holes in the side where you can use a stock Ford part to make it happen.
Deffinately run the brace off the side of the 205.
Where can I find teh stock Ford 205 mount?
ATF in the 205? and 80w90 in the 203?
I think they both call for 30 weight, ATF is closer to 20.
looks like 205 gets gear oil, 30 weight in the 203

Everyone runs gear oil in both. The 203 is just gears anyway, **** it. JB, building the foot from scratch will probably be your best bet.
Travis doesn't have one.
my 203 is puking 80w90. try running 30w.
I am going to make it a solid mount, since both trans and engine mounts are solid.
My NP435, NP203, and NP 205 all run 85W90, it makes it simpler. I have no issues with leaks. ATF started being used to increase fuel mileage, there is some other problem with gear oil foaming on a chain driven t-case.
Also, I did not know your engine was solid mounted, The hole thing being solid mount scares me...
general rule of thumb it seems. if the case is cast use 90 wt if it is alluminum use atf.....
brian also broke a bunch of crossmembers till he tied them all together. def do both
