The head is full of thoughts he he

would this be more of a paperweight or something someone might want to buy? In my jeep the SM420 is a bolt on to the 225 so this adapter gets you the lower 18 gears, I know it is not a strong case but..

small bore or large bore Dana 18? Small, medium or large intermediate shaft?

I dunno :)

Anyway I can tell by lookin at it? I think it came from Capital Jeepers, not that that means anything.

What version of the Dana18 t-case you have shouldn't affect the price of the adapter. The AA adapter for the SM420 to D18 is the most expensive at over $500 for a complete kit. The Novak kit has a mid-range price of $475. Rube seems to have the best price for a complete kit for $400 (including shipping).

Oh you already have the adapter, is that the deal?

:confused:

yea, but I want to put a toy tcase back there instead of the 18 - cheaper low range gears, centered diff, etc..

so yea I have the AA adapter and Tcase, what should I try to sell it for?

depends which case you have.

Oh gotcha. Well I think that its worth about $350-$400 with the t-case. If you have a later version of the Dana18 it is a little more desirable to most people but the price isn't going to be much different. Does the t-case have a twin stick or not? Do you know what the transfer case came out of?
