Tech Note 1: Synchronized Cases
GM was the only vehicle manufacturer to use a synchronized version of the New Process NP205 Gear Drive Transfer Case. It was introduced for the 1982 model year for use with trucks with automatic front locking hubs to allow low speed, shift on the fly 4x4 high range engagement. While a nice idea, functional and reliability problems caused GM to drop the idea. GM parts books show the synchronized case was available from 1982-1985. We have had a few customers with 1986 trucks with them, but they may not be original units. In any case, most specialized new replacement parts for the short lived Synchronized NP205 Transfer Case are either gone or in very short supply.
