NP205 shifter id help

Picked this up recently and it has a different bend than the other 71-72 shifters I have here. I assume it is maybe a 71-72 for a 4 speed truck? Can anyone confirm?
Thanks.

Re: NP205 shifter id help

I don't know, but I have a 4spd/205 set-up with a shifter that has a different bend from what I've seen. Not quite like yours, but different. It's not a chrome one and I've wondered if someone bent it that way

Eric,
looks like someone modified that one, the t-case shifter in my 4 speed/ 205 looks the same as the one in my automatic/205.

If it has been rebent, some one did a nice job and would have had to bend it at an odd angle. But hey, anything is possible.

Re: NP205 shifter id help

1970 Bends over toward the driver, it's hard to tell from the pics, but it might be a
70 ?

Re: NP205 shifter id help

If I am looking at it right, this would bend away from the driver slightly.
I thought maybe a 70 also, but I think 70 has the smaller knob with no pattern on it.

Re: NP205 shifter id help

It's not a '70, they have a severe bend & come through the hump on the driver's side of the trans. gear shift ( I have a '70 but no pic)

Here's the '71 shifter. It is not installed in the stock location because of the overdrive.

Re: NP205 shifter id help

I believe this one is a 71-72 np205 shifter. The picture angles with the lower boot twisted sideways at bottom makes it look funny. I think 69-70 had two different styles for the np205, one for 4 speed that was bent toward driver side and one with offset but straight up for auto trans. The 67-69 Rockwell t-cases had completely different placement and design.

BW - cool overdrive setup! I like that!!!

Re: NP205 shifter id help

70' is also bent more at the base to come up through more centered on the hump. Looks like 71-72 to me and modified bend. 71-72 auto/manual 4x4's should all be same like the rest of yours Eric. 70' auto/70' manual comparison pic. Yes, I know it has the newer 73-87 sm465 shifter.

Lol, We need to find you a correct single bend 4 speed shifter or photo shop this pic. It's a great example picture of the 69-70 NP205 shifters! Hope you didn't mind me borrowing it for my WTB ad.
