    Help - my wheel almost fell off

    Yup, thats why i work on my own stuff. If you dont know it yet, its all out there on the old interwebs. :waytogo:

    Help - my wheel almost fell off

    If you pull the axle, you should be able to see the tab from the locking washer bent around to the front, in one of the indentions, as it shows in the picture in Craigs post. This tab might have been your problem. It could have broken off due to repeatedly bending it back and forth. To refill...

    Sm465 swap

    I dont know what to tell you on that one. I guess maybe decide which direction you would ultimately rather go, and find the cheapest way to get there, and decide if that is possible. Maybe keep the hydro bell, sell the rest and find a 465 mated to the transfer case you want? If it was me, id...

    This is uncharted territory for me:). I would listen to @bucket. Maybe he’ll chime in on this.

    I searched 27-32 spline coupler.

    Sm465 swap

    Before i wrote that other post about having the right adapter, i googled it. I cant remember what i searched, but i saw something about 27-32 spline adapter. Ill see if i can find it.

    You can buy them new, but they are pricey. They are out there used too, but not much cheaper. Mine had both bolts broken off in it when i got it so i did try to source one, but with the prices, i just fought with mine.

    Google and utube. I watched a guy named geb built. He was a member here at one point. His videos on the 465 may help. Otherwise, its gotta be out there, someone has dealt with it.

    Sm465 swap

    The sm465/np205 is for sure bulletproof. They went to 32 splines in 79, which i guess is stronger than the 10 spline setup. As far as your shifter, maybe its out of a heavier duty truck? Or maybe engine mounts are farther back? Was the engine swapped?(i6-v8) im not sure on the engine mounts, but...

    By the way, you didnt get hurt on that deal. Just the bellhousing is worth more than that. Did you get the hydro pedal setup with it?

    Sm465 swap

    To me, the 205 would always be the better option, but i dont think the length will be the same, as far as your driveshafts working. I think you could make the 205 work with the right adapter and coupler that mates the shafts. That 74 205 will use the “racetrack” bolt pattern so you will need the...

    I cant find the thread on crossmembers but if i do i will post it.

    Sm465 swap

    I used the same one. I think it depends on the hight of the mounts on the adapter. @bucket or @HotRodPC might no more. I did have to slide mine back but the holes were there. I thought i was going to have to drill one of them but it was just caked full of mud. There was a whole thread on here...

    203 shift linkage

    I recently twinsticked my 205. Lots more options and shifts like butter. I used a jbcustomfab kit i bought from ebay.

    Little tip on trans installs. No trans jack.

    We’ll make up for it by celebrating now. :favorites13:

    Little tip on trans installs. No trans jack.

    I used one floor jack, some small jack stands, a 2x8 and allota cussin’. Oh, and rum too, lots of rum.

    FNG from the PNW

    Welcome from Missouri. Great truck! My vote is to keep the visor. Ive thought about putting one on mine.

    Sm465 swap

    Interesting. Probly would fit, but with a lifted truck, i imagine it would kill the angle at the pinion. Plus more ujoints, splines, and a carrier bearing to maintain and worry about failing.

    I thought those were only used in 2wd applications. Mine looks like the one in my picture and has a 67” working length. What is that in?
