Burnouts with a NP203 full time 4wd?

[AyWoSch Motors]

To answer all your questions:

It has 33x12.50 Baja XTs.
It hooks like crazy under normal circumstances, and pushes your head into your seat like you cant pick it up.
Did donuts in it the the other day, went round and round till it was so dusty inside I couldn't see the gauges, dug a hole in my field.
I dont have pavement anywhere near me for like 5 miles, so its gonna be on dirt. Just wanna dig holes and have fun.
I'm not a noob to the idea, I do full smoke shows all the time in my 86 k10 short bed with a small block 305, muncie 4 speed, and a 205. Just curious if the chain drive is significantly weaker or not.
This truck has one purpose on life... to have fun with. It's a loud, rusty, crusty, chopped up POS, but it sure is fun. Not afraid to break it.

Nice chain door. That looks like a fun truck to drive. I'd do burnouts in that too. Lol

Thanks.
That thing is a blast. Itll drift, do donuts, and scare the crap out of every loving thing around.
Nice smoke show in that vid.

Is your place the only settlement in the valley? Looks pretty desolate.

My dad once told me a story when I was growing up how he would take his 1959 Chevy and have it roll backwards then he'd rev it up in neutral and drop it in drive. It was the only way he could do a burnout.

Well- that story stuck with me and my 1978 K5 full time 4 blazer with a 400 was my first vehicle. It couldn't do a burnout.

So after the light night movie in town I was taking my buddy home who lived in the south hills and an idea came to me. Stop on the very steep hill, have it roll backwards downhill and do a neutral drop.

It wasn't as good as I thought. So then I did it in LO range. That was fun. I'd still be rolling backwards and smoke was rolling up from the front tires and going in front of the headlights. Finally it would hookup and would go flying up the hill until the top speed of around 40 mph. Since I did it in LO and not LO LOC the rear tires didn't spin though. I didn't know that at the time.

With the blown out glasspacks it caused a lot of noise. All the houses in the area then would have their lights turn on. I'd pop it back in HI range and drive away quietly.

My 203 survived along with my driveshafts... but maybe dumb luck. I was only running 235/75R15s on it though.

Back in the day we called letting it roll backwards and flooring it "backing it down" It was murder on the torque converters also.My bro's 56 Pontiac locked up the rearend doing it right there in the middle of the road.lol

How stupid is that? I seen a guy loose his leg popping a clutch. The clutch came through the floor board. Got a scatter shield? ????

Its chain driven, so I'm concerned itll just blow up putting that much power to just the rear

I'm assuming you're talking about the T-case? The NP203 is not chain driven. It's gear driven. No chains in the exploded view diagram.

The 14 bolt rear end is pretty much bullet proof, it's what's in the carrier that may or may not be bullet proof.

False... Item 45 is the "Drive chain", on top of that you have multiple Drive sprockets and the rear part of the T-case housing is called the "chain housing"(Item 14). The NP205 is the only gear driven T-Case you could get in a square body as far as I know.

I've never had a 203. I thought 208 was the only chain driven. I guess I stand corrected.

Start at post 35, I do burnouts with my 73 K20 more then I should, but.....has a 205, and the rear lunchbox locker, works very good and tough. Did break my 350 TH though, so I rebuilt it with better parts, and so far it has held together. Have a 4l80e that I will install next winter, along with a Spartan Locker for the front D44. Interesting all the responses you got. I have always love to hotrod, blame my Dad, he loved it to. However you may have to pay the price for broken parts, but at least you find the weak link and eliminate is. I live in a wide open place, so I feel as long as I am not obnoxious to the neighbors, (none except elk and deer), burnouts in front of the house is fine. As the summer progresses, their will be lots of rubber laid down, as other folks see your burnout place and do it to. 67 years old, and a lead foot....just a burden I have to bare alone, sniff.
