The term identifies a specific type of transfer case, the NP205, configured in a divorced setup, and offered for purchase. This configuration means the transfer case is mounted separately from the transmission, connected by a driveshaft. An example would be a listing advertising a rebuilt NP205 transfer case, removed from a vintage truck, available to be shipped to the buyer.
This particular arrangement offers advantages in certain vehicle builds. Historically, divorced transfer cases were common in heavy-duty trucks, allowing for greater flexibility in drivetrain design and wheelbase options. They can also simplify modifications and repairs in some instances. Acquiring one can be essential for restoring specific vehicle models or for custom builds requiring a robust and adaptable transfer case solution.
