Well before you rush out the trans won't work with the diesel unless it's from the V10 and if your in Calif .Forget it .won't pass smog either

the previous owner of the 93 had NV4500 installed after his Getrag failed , So I have the correct transmission, I think. but will the 93 manual locking hubs bolt-on to my dana 60 F outer C's?

But you said it's a HD V8 ? that's Not a diesel

you will have to use the transfer case from a newer truck because the gen ones transfer case output is on the wrong side . as far as the knuckles from a gen one fitting the newer axle i dont think it will work without some serious machine and design work. you could get a ford np205 they have the left hand drop i would just use the newer style front axle and transfer case

The OP said the 12v comes with an NV4500 also. Since the NV4500 started with the 2nd gen trucks, the T-case should be a direct bolt on.

Thanks for the replies.. Just to Clairfy, My donor truck is a 1993 W250 With a 12v and NV4500 , NP 205. My project truck is a 1998 2500 HD with a 360 V8 gas engine. And as for smog you can keep it! I'm in the middle of BC, LOL

the np205 off a first gen will not work with a gen 2 the gen 2 t case drops on the left side gen ones drop on the right

The it is my understanding that the Dodge hubs will not work. That's why people do the conversion with 92-97 Ford F350 parts. As stated above, the Dodge NP205 has a passenger side drop and will not work. You can find a Ford NP205, but you must make sure the spline count is correct. Fords tend to have larger spline count.

My Ford free spin conversion was bolt-in.
