The New Process 203 was used in GM, Ford, and Dodge through the 70's behind auto and manual transmissions. They were originally a full time 4wd 'case, meaning all 4 tires receive power at all times. This was made possible through use of a open differential in the back of the 203 that let the front and rear drive shafts turn at different speeds as just as a diff in an axle lets each axle shaft turn at a different speed. For off road use, the 203 had a "lock" position in which the differential was locked making the front and rear outputs spin at the same speed. Shift positions are: High, Lo, High Lock, Low Lock and Neutral. A popular modification to the 203 was to install a "part time" kit to eliminate the differential. In this configuration the 203 operates like more conventional transfer cases in that it's either in 2wd or 4wd and when in 4wd the power is evenly split from front to rear.

Plus one on keeping those tanks FULL .... that should be number one!

Im a big believer in sea foam ........ Odd how . There's been no talk of Stabil gas treatment .... I use that in each container of gasoline ... Haven't had a single (2 stroke or 4 stroke) carb issue in more then 11 years....

Fish .... I believe the 203 is the chain drive model .... My 80 one ton chevy dump bed has a gear drive 205 ... With a pto side mount for the hydraulic unit... The trans shift pattern I'm the pic 2H N 4L 4H .... now we had a 75 chevy full time fwd. it had the 203 cast iron case version ...l now she was chain drive .... The shift pattern was ( left side of pic ) L lock, L, N, H, H lock ...many thought the lock, locked the wheels to posi.... That's incorrect!! , lock, locked the differentail inside the transfer case, the 208 (i think) has the same shift pattern as the 205 .... And YES why would ford do a miss match between the front pumpkin verses the rear ??? Lol!!! All that would do, is wind up the drive train..... http://tcase.rsgear.com/technical/diagrams/ep-diagrams/new-process-203-transfer-case.aspx

Yeah... That load belongs in the firewood thread .....

Thinking outside the box again ?? Between this ^^ and Bigfoot and the zombie apocalypse .... You @Bighanded and myself have got to chat... Lol

[auote]I was also down at my 2nd home on the coast 2 weekends ago..salt water...mostly whiting/croackers, but some small shark and ray action too...[/quote] I'll be sending you a PM soon .... :-)

Hey freedomflyer ! Glad you made it ....

Okay .... I might wait and see if retro can add any... I never had ANY luck getting that darn button off.... Do us a favor ?? If you manage to get the button off snap a pic of the pole that button locks onto..... I'd like to see the locking tab..... I can't find any pics or information anyone who's ever gotten one off.... Lol .... Oh! And I'm really injoying your thread.... Keep up the good work :-)

@retro Did a post a while back, but danged if i can locate it in the old forums, mine was faded, and i was going to pop it out and go with a new one (i masked the entire switch minus the kill button) if you look right under the button, there should ?? Be a hole .... Short of it..... Takes a small pick, OR screw driver to unlock it, Here's two pics oddly enough....... my 97 300 (1st pic) doesn't have said hole, and my 00 300 2nd pic) does.... The 97 might have an aftermarket switch?? Or maybe the switch design changed over the years.... I'll be looking into this!

You better hope there's NO earth quake ........ While your in there ..... On a note...... I sure would like to pick through all them goodies .... If y'all ever ?? Have a sale ?? (HINT HINT) ..... Be sure to let me know!

Hm.... When i saw this ... 1st thing i thought of was fishfiles....

just be aware that 4-way CAN come blasting off under extreme pressure .....(DO NOT TRUST THAT CHEESY retraining cable) I talked with a friend HERE who told me about a good friend of his who was hurt by a wood splitter incident .... (Struck in the head, he survived :-) ) and i myself had logs piece come shooting out.... The worst was a couple days after i got the 4-way.... I had a log pop like a gun shot.... I never did see / or locate the chunk went shooting off to.....

Yep! One of my favorite races! I'm SO looking forward to the upcoming season!

Plus ^^^

For HERE or your place ?? I couldn't resist "grin" i could use a few myself..... They most likely would be full of bullet holes like my no trespassing signs....

Welcome to ATVH !

Thanks! I noticed yours has an updated (taller) anvil ..... Lets see the 4 - way wedge ..... I'm thinking it's a speeco ?

Welcome to ATVH, Outnback

Good looking beast! ..... This is an older pic of my 35 ton.... I haven't added many engine hours on it , least not as much as i should have.... I updated with two log catchers, fenders, 4 way slip on wedge, (spacer plate,) two magnetic oil plugs, and a tarp, if i was you... I might look into a 4 way wedge ...

Glad you located it, i hate loosing things.. Lol ... Drives me up the wall!! Lol! I've been doing a bit of research and baofeng has come out with a analog / digital transceiver .... Dm-1701 , and dm-1801 .....that has my attention! I might have to snatch myself one of these .... And do some tinkering, the only dealings I've had (1st hand) is my uniden digital receiver .... For Monitoring Tennessee Highway Patrol (state wide) and other agencies that have switched to digital it would SO cool to have a hand held transceiver to do the same. One issue they need to work on is the band coverage 470 mhz isn't high enough.... A gig would be better IMO. T.H.P. often transmits in the 700 mhz range..... I reckon it's a time to check in with radio reference ... http://www.miklor.com/COM/Review_DM1801.php Anyways this doesn't really qualify for atv riding supply's lol

Happy (up and coming) birthday F250 guy!

the ! that's damaged is the front , the rear is the one, just above the spot light beam , your probably right on the intake tube....

Welcome to Camchat ! You can get your handle changed to your old one if you would like to :-)

Yeah... Don't remind me ... Lol, i had t look for these pics... As you can see it was damned up ... I believe my grandfather did this, because they once used this water instead of county water ... Over time The supply lines corroded, and got broken up...if you look over to the right of the spot light beam (1st pic) you can see a small place where it was blocked up (doesnt make sence) why this was blocked , i don't know. (2nd pic) shows a distant veiw of the !, (3rd pic) close up view of both damns . The back small one, and the main one.why someone went in and damaged the main one, i have no clue, but it will NOT happen again!!
