From that picture, I can't tell if that is a transmission, transfercase or PTO.

That is a PTO in the first picture. Hard to tell what it will fit from the picture. I used to install them on all types of vehicles. We do not make dump trucks anymore because of the liability. That liability thing is sure killing a lot of business. That PTO needs precise installation and adjustments when properly installed. Any hydraulic pumps we install now are electric. 99% of the vehicles we build are NON CDL trucks. Good Luck on your install. Make sure it is shimmed properly.

Your correct about properly adjusting the backlash on the PTO gears. They should be around 0.006" to 0.012" clearance. Any more and you will get what I call "gear flop" . That is when the gears have to much lash and they flop back and forth between the gears. This can lead to teeth breaking on the gears since your slamming back and forth. If the setting is too tight it can cause "binding" as the gears heat up during use. That can cause bearing failure and shafts breaking as your actually forcing them out of alignment. I've seen countershafts broken by improperly shimming the PTO unit.

It could be right. I can look when I get home. I have a few NP 205 transfer cases in my stash. I will look and get a picture. Unless someone beats me to it. Ready set GO.

In your first post, first sentence you said,
Is this a np205 t case?
That is a question that I can only interpret as, "is this an np205 transfercase".


Yet, in your thread title you posted,
Np205 pto?
This I would interpret as you have a question about an np205 power take off.

Then you post,
Thank you. 6 bolts, not right then.
And in-fact, the correct PTO will have 6 bolts. So I have no clue what you are implying there.


Could you please take a few minutes to post clearly and concisely what it is you are trying to figure out?

np205-031205.jpgThis picture is where on the NP 205 case the PTO in the first picture goes. Now before I get in trouble for I don't know what. I will let it at that. I can not tell if the 6 bolt holes on the PTO will line up but I think they will. I installed a lot of PTO's on JATCO transmissions. A lot of the 4WD Fuso FE cab chassis were very popular for dump beds along with the Isuzu cab chassis with the JATCO transmissions. Just make sure you get the bask lash and the gears messed correctly. Been so long I forgot most of the stuff. I still have the Dana books somewhere.

The PTO hole and bolt pattern is a SAE standard, but the gear mesh is SPECIFIC TO WHAT THE PTO BOLTS TO! It's really difficult to tell from pictures, you need to check part numbers.

Yup, and how to read part numbers to identify pto's is in the link I posted.
