Looks like because of the angle I'm going to have to swap out the front yoke (or whatever it is called) on the transfer case to use the double u-joint style shaft. Wish I'd done that when I had the TC out on the floor. Project for another weekend...

Well crap, if I had noticed the single yoke in a pic you posted I may have spoke up cause the NP205 has a double Cv type joint. Now if you do that your going to have to shorten the shaft length. Trying to install the shaft with the CV joint is a bear too! Least on my truck
