I don't need drive shaft modifications with 2mnyprojects setup as it is pretty much the same thickness. I mentioned possible drive shaft modification before I knew what he had. The use of 2mnyprojects setup would require my trans coming out and at a minimum using his trans and the rest of the...

Thanks for the install guide. It is not what I needed but was a good read so I saved a copy. I was looking on the wayback machine myself and came up short. I have a 2001 Downey catalog and it has the newer 1" looking adapter like 2mnyprojects has. I am narrowing down the way I am going to...

Sorry if I made confusion. My adapter is different than 2mnyprojects. Previous I stated my plate was about 1". ( not true ) After removing it and throwing a caliper on it ; it is 3/4 ". The adapter I have utilizes the stock splined output shaft from a 6 " tail shaft TH350 so no disassembly of...

I pulled adapter plate off the trans to see if anymore surprises could be spotted. I found heli coils in all adapter plate holes for transfer case mounting. They all seem fine to me . I am waiting for the shaft to be welded and ground. Notice the adapter plate thickness. ( 19mm )

Thanks 2mnyprojects. The picture thing turned out great. I took my cracked shaft this morning to a local pro welding service and was glad to learn they have high confidence of a repair. With that being said I will go the route of repair and reassemble. I would still like to have your adapter and...

Thanks for the update 2mnyprojects. This is perfectly understandable. You have 2 many projects and I have 2 many hobbies ! If I get bored it's my own fault.

Sound good. I just had to figure out the picture thing myself. If you are using a PC , you could drag and drop the picture from your desk top screen to the post you are writing. I put the picture near the top of my desk top so it was handy to grab. When you are writing your post look just above...

Thanks for the response 2mnyprojects Yes I am interested reading or seeing more about your adapter. Mine is about 1". Is yours Downey, AA or other ? Thinner or the thicker 5.25" ? What would you have to have ? I am set up well now for the 1" but modifying the drive shafts one more time is not...

Thanks Jim ! Push comes to shovel I will figure it out. I am happy with the many Downey parts on my build. 4" springs Shackle reversal Cantilever rear shackles to name a few

Thanks for the response. At first I thought I had the same one in this link. Fj40 transfer case - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/fj40-transfer-case.1233026/#post-13499774 Now I see obvious differences. The splines on mine are located on the nose cone side. I only had one bearing on the nose...

I have a early 70s Downey TH350 to 3 speed fj40 transfer case adapter . I have a cracked transfer case input shaft. I have posted a wanted for the shat and am hoping for the best. I bought this many years ago attached to the TH350 and did not run until recently. I had ATF getting in the...

I have a cracked internal splined Downey shaft. This is the rare early 70s TH350 downey conversion that has its own gear mounted on a custom shaft.
