Transfer case....blew up?

[BLACKF100]

So I just bought this 1970 f100 and the guy i bought it from put a 1978 transmission in it. The transfer case basically fell apart on the guy and I have to replace it. Would a np 205 transfer case work on it regardless if its from a ford or a chevy as long as it's 1978? Or are there any upgrades? any info would be great....

You need a transfer from a ford. Chebbys and dodges are completely different.

A Ford 205 pretty much is as upgraded as you can get it. It already is 31 spline in and out. GMs you get 10 spline garbage, and there is like 4 different varirations. Essentially, put back on what you have, you will be fine. Just make sure you do not confuse a 205 with a 203, they look somewhat similar, but the 203 has a range box bolted to the front of it.

where could I find a good reliable one? I have looked to see if people are selling them but not much luck in my area. If I could get it brand new I would do it..I just don't know where to look.

Or the fact that they wont bolt up and have a pass side drop.

check craigslist, put wanted ads out there, check the junkyards, you should not have and issue finding one, but first you have to look

I can find them for $50-200 all day long.

Hit up craigslist, the local penny saver type paper, local offroading clubs, junkyards....

yeah I dont see them in my area too much, but I am in your neck of the woods now and then so, if I come in need of one its not a big deal.
