I just bought a '94 toyota 4X4 with 100k. I got a deal because it had broken steering rod. (Recall by toyota-they gave me a free replacement.) Perfect truck except the V6 that was in it is missing! I need the trans out of it for another project. Swapping a smallblock chevy is not really a concern, but I need some advice on transmission options and transfer cases. I have a tried and true SM465 4X4 tranny that I love. I would like to use it if possible. I can fab the crossmember to match on that. Anyboby out there running this setup? What transfer case would be best? I have a NP205 paired with the SM465. I also have a 21spl gear driven toy 4cyl transfer case and a 23spl chain driven case from a V6. I am assuming I'll have to do custom driveshafts. My main question is WILL THE NP205 DRIVESHART LINE UP WITH THE OFFSET ON THE TOY FRONT DIFF?? Any suggestions will be appreciated. I may be overlooking the obvious! Going to measure and test fit the engine this weekend (1st of Sept.)
Thanks in advance

 

Anybody know of an adapter to use a toyota gear driven transfer case with the sm465 gm granny gear 4 speed?
