Along the way I collected another transfercase with a 727 attached. The guy said he thought the case was from a 78, and the trans was suppose to be good. It has a 4wd lock & 4wd shifter. Over the weekend my 50 went to be with someone that will use it for parts, but he didn't want this transfercase. I see no future use for this transfercase around here, so it needs to go away. I really have no knowledge of this thing or its history. Is there a need for something like this, or should I just scrap it? Gene

The 203 folks use them for a 203/ 205 doubler in rock some 4x4.. they are $100 give or take.. 205 is $150 $200 208 or 241 chain drive 80's like $50 if the chain is tight.. 727... I am going to take it that is it a small block case. $50-100 as a rebuildable core. Big block $200 for core.

Looks to be cast iron, I'll look better tomorrow, in the day light. It does have 2 shifter rods. Must be a 203. I figured the trans was a core. I bought it cheap, if there is a need, I will sell it cheap, if it doesn't sell soon, it will be scrap. I don't have the space or desire to keep it. I'm heading for the truck classifieds now. Gene
