Curious as to what transfer case resides in a HT ?

Indeed, I'm not at all a fan of what is going on with that front axle mounting wise, and since the front leafs already have a shackle at the front, I could remove those ginourmus rear brackets hanging down for the rear shackle/control arm mounts, along with the upper control arm, and just build...

I dug around a bit and could not actually find what I was looking for, I wanted to see a breakdown of the inner workings of that funky Hi-Lo on the back of the Hydromatic and also the T-case, I'm sure the manuals are there, but as most of the time I'm on my phone it can be hard to see and...

T-case is staying where its at, as it has the two rear outputs needed for the M211 way of powering the rear drivers .

Hmmmmm, I have a bunch of questions about this, so here goes ... I'm assuming that 12 valve and 6 speed hooked together in their previous life like in a delivery truck ? You must have a divorced F205 as I have never seen one bolted to the back of an Eaton ? Why are you going to all the...

Alright, there we go, just looking at the front diff it seemed doable (do-able) ? But what I am going to do first since it needs to be done anyway is transplant the enine/trans combo and hook that to the stock T-case set-up and see how it feels runs and drives like that, then I'll go from...

So why can't I just flip the front center section upside down to match the Rockwell T-case input ?

I had some time today so I drove it around a made a couple vids for you guys, here's one, I'll post the other if I can get it to load . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLlQ8aE-2ls&t=10s So I never could get that other vid from yesterday to load, so I made another, It's worse than the one...

Ah, forgot to refresh before posting, thanks for this info ! :beer:

Huh, it was my understanding that these are Eaton 110s, I know GM and Eaton were tied up at some point, but yes I understand the difference between the Rockwells and these, was just hoping that these were gear oil lubed, vastly superior system to the grease IMO, do you know the gear ratio ?

Thanks for the input Plowboy, I'm not sure how the radiator is supposed to come out as a unit with the engine, but either way it will come out, I will have someone ride around and make a vid for you before it comes apart, if this truck had a manual trans and a Hi Lo T-case I would not go to all...

Here are a few pics ...

Will I be burned at the stake here for repowering an original truck ? So I have a 1952 XM211 that is completely stock original Powertrain wise . It has the 302 6cyl Jimmy and cadillac auto trans with the Hi/Lo on the back of it, and a single speed in/out T-case . This truck is a water...
