    I'm pretty sure my 205 was from a Dodge, so hopefully I can get you some useful numbers and pics.

    Still looking for the measurements listed above. I was hoping for a stock configuration NP200 mounted in the spot the factory put it. Don't forget to put your truck back in gear when you are done.
    Thanks!

    It hasn't moved in a couple of years so it should be ok, lol!
    I got caught up with my kids this weekend and then it snowed about a foot. Sorry I haven't got out yet. I have a late meeting today, so I think the soonest I can get under it will be tomorrow evening, with my measurements on a 205 replacement. I'll have to leave it to someone else to get a 200 measurement for you.

    Ha, we got snow too. No biggie Gonz. I am grateful for the help. I have all winter. It looks like I will need a CV front driveshaft. With the caster Barrman suggested I try to keep, the pinion is pointed right at the transfer case. I hope the CV assembly fits between the cross member and the transfer case. That also means opening up the frame cross member and making a bolt on lower section to install the driveline. I have been looking online at my options. I need to make a shifter mount for the side of the T98. And a clutch slave mount.
    Just rambling out loud here... My coffee is strong this morning.

    I'll get the measurements for you tonight. Mine is up on the lift in the middle of a kingpin rebuild (tons of fun).

    Hey I appreciate it. I know everyone is busy and has a life. Here is the thing. I can land the 205 without the measurements using a digital angle finder and some basic driveline tech etc, but knowing the general location of a stock set up would be great to know. My original bone stock 68 did not vibrate one bit. I am getting older and really only want do it once. Yesterday I made both mounts. I actually damaged my 20 ton press making the bends. I hid behind a section of plywood while bending. Crazy stored energy. All I need to do is locate and drill holes.

    If I could just get the cab on, I am that much closer to hitting the sewing machine.

    Many thanks.

    So it looks like the front driveshaft output is 2.75" and the input is about 7.25".

    Hope this helps
