I don't know of any as even the big stuff years ago used divorced transfer cases.

I would find a NP205 divorced style out of a 70's Dodge 4x4 P/U or International light line 4x4. Both had the front drive coming out of the right side if you are using a 60's to late 80's GM front drive axle.

Ford also used the 205 divorced style through about '77 on the F250/350, but it drives on the left, so you'd need a Ford front drive axle.

The 205 is all gear drive and is the strongest of the light truck models. I converted my truck (a 1965 Chevy) after the naturally aspirated 454 chewed up the original Timken T221. It has held up under the turbocharger since 1986.

Are you wanting a manual transmission only or are you also considering an automatic?
