This is awesome Securiti, I applaud you for taking it on. You might consider an Atlas 3 transfer case as they are darn near indestructible. Price might be an issue. We run one in our Cummins YJ rockcrawler.

Ductape,
The NP203 is full time but can be converted to part time. It is a 2-section transfer case, one section for the range box (low gear) and one section for the f/r driveline split. The 2 sections of the t-case can be separated and used independently. It is common for rock crawlers to yank the range box section from an NP203 to use a 'doubler' in their drivetrain, since the 203 has a 2:1 low range. The NP203 and NP205 were made in the 70's and both have heavy duty iron cases and can handle quite a bit of torque output from the engine. The 205 is an all-gear part time t-case. The 203 uses chain drive with a center differential for full-time operation.

Securiti,
Even though tandeming the truck is not how I would have gone about increasing the trailer towing or hitch weight hauling ability of the truck, it is an interesting and fun project none-the-less that I will follow as it progresses here on the forum. I lend my support to the idea.

First thing I thought of when I saw this was how many times I've been buried in the sand at Pismo Beach. I'm thinking you would have no issues there.
When should I have my truck delivered for the conversion?

Cool project. I scrolled through the responses and didn't any from the weight police. I though they would jump all over you. You just have to watch and make sure those axels arn't locked at all when turning or you may not turn at all on dry pavement. Should handle anything you put behind it.
