re: twin stick 205
Dunno? I have never messed with a 24. I would say yes because usage in design is similar but it would be trial and error. If you had a extra set of rails lying around or made some mock up ones to try I would say go for it!

re: twin stick 205
I have a twin sticked 205 in a truck I purchased. I've been concentrating on building other things like a flatbed cage, rock sliders and crosmembers. I want to do a full exocage eventually.
I plan to pull the 205 and rebuild or reseal it, possibly add a 203 doubler and or different gears for the 205. I notice everything about the twin stick mod works except for 2wd front high. I am guessing it's something wrong with how the shift rail was ground or the linkage itself. Any thoughts?

re: twin stick 205
I followed all the directions from three different articles for grinding down the shift rail. I quit because I was nervous about taking to much off. So I have every combo except front high, which is fine with me. As long as I have front wheel drive and rear low I'm happy.

Thanks for the input. I'll let you know what I come up with. I'm fine with it as well, nice to have it all though. I'm gonna test the rig for the first time this weekend. After that it's on to other mods, including pulling the 205 and servicing it, or modding, doubling etc.

NO. I won't work wright. I already checked it out when i swapped my D24 case with another.ICEMAN6166 wrote:so is it possible to do this on a Dana 24 case?
rod and removal is a little different but idea should be the same?
