Tech Note 1: 1st Design
The original NP205 Rear Output Shaft has a tendency to shear under high loads due to the design of the oil feed slots. This weak point was not a big issue with the low power gas engines available when the NP205 was introduced in 1969, but it became a big issue towards the end of the the NP205's production life especially with the high-torque Cummins Diesel engine available in Dodge trucks from 1989 to 1993. Shaft breakage problems led to the TK50084 redesigned shaft with drilled oil feed holes. To see the difference, click on the link above to see our NP205 Rear Output Shaft Comparison Tech Photo.

Tech Note 2: 2nd Design
TK50084 is a direct replacement for any Chevy, Dodge, Ford, GMC, or IHC NP205 Transfer Case with a fixed rear output yoke and a PLASTIC speedometer drive gear. The shaft will physically fit early production NP205 transfer cases with steel speedometer drive gears, HOWEVER, the steel speedometer gear and steel spacer WILL NOT fit the TK50084 shaft! We do not have any concrete information about which plastic drive gears would work with early production driven gears.

Applications
New Process NP205 Transfer Cases:
with Fixed Rear Output Shafts and Plastic Speedometer Drive Gears

All NP205's except 1980-1991 GM with Slip Yoke Rear Output use a 32 Spline Rear Output. TK50084 will directly replace shafts that are splined for a plastic speedometer drive gear. The list below shows the approximate year ranges for NP205's that had plastic speedo gears:
Chevy and GMC: 1973-1991 (1973-1979 ALL, 1980-1991 with Fixed Rear Output)
Dodge: 1973-1993
Ford: 1973-1979
IHC: 1974-1975
TK50084 will fit the older transfer cases before the years listed above, but steel gear and spacer need to be replaced by plastic gear.
