I've managed to kill my NP208 and was considering a NP205 swap rather than repairing old 208. I've got a few questions and have done a bit of research but haven't found all the info yet.
Is the stock TH 400 a short output shaft version (meaning that the NP205 will need a long input shaft)?
Is the stock NP 205 in the 1031 a figure 8 or 6 bolt round pattern. Also, is the rear output a slip yoke. Will a round pattern NP205 fit the exsiting 208 adaptor--I've seen indications that this is possible with minor modifications but nothing definite.
I found several figure 8 --th400 adaptors but thay seem too tall-were there crossmember differences or am I missing something?
It appears that the easiest way to make the swap is to obtain a long input, round pattern 205 with a rear slip yoke and either the correct adaptor (or reuse the existing if possible) and shorten the readr drive shaft.
Thanks
