I installed the Off Road Design Magnum 205 this past week into my truck and have been receiving a lot of questions regarding their operation and purpose. I hope you find this video helpful! I will be doing a more dedicated deep dive into the operation, function and use in a later video but thought this could clear up some confusion!

Good to see the truck outside for a change.

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

You telling me! Feels great!

@ABooneBuild 3 года назад

That's the setup I've been looking at, with the addition of two OX locker selectors

@GhostZodick 2 года назад

Then you will have 6 shifters

@josemiguelgl 3 года назад

you told me on Instagram you were going to post a video explaining the setup, but i did´nt think it was going to be so soon. thanks man!! now i get it, the magnum box its a multiplyer or reduction for the transfer case. tons of torque for rock climbing, no engine effort

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

Exactly. Great traction, control and no wheel spin

The shifter pan and mounting looks killer and super clean inside the rig now. Such a difference from a year ago. Great job James, totally jelly and the plan to copy is in progress!

Very cool, I have a NorthWestFab kit for my 07 SAS Tacoma. Waiting on the triple stick kit as well. Should be a fun install and learning experience.

@haroldpinter8076 2 года назад

Just be aware that the northwestfab triple stick kit will not give you the ability to independently control the front and rear axle like in this video if you use a Toyota transfer case for your setup

Nice, waiting on my 205 from the machine shop...

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

Twin stick?

@joshpeterson7216 3 года назад

I had the 10 spline 205, I had to inlarge the input shaft bearing from 80mm to 90mm to run the magnum, and yes it will be the same as your, just a nv4500 for transmission...

@oldtruckoperator2106 2 года назад

You can use a 10 spline on a nv4500?

@joshpeterson7216 2 года назад

@@oldtruckoperator2106 I know, I wanted the 32 spline 1992 Chevy Nv4500 and the magnum under drive from OffRoadDesign it uses a fat shaft input to the 205 that’s unbreakable, that with the 32spline outputs front and back of the 205 with cv drive shafts

GREAT INFO. IM INTERESTED IN THE MAGNUM BOX FOR NP205. NOW I´M CUSTOMIZING MY JEEP WITH HEMI 5.7, ZF5 TRANSMISSION, 1TON AXLES ( BOTH WITH STOCK GEAR RATIO 3.73 ) AND 42" TIRES SO IN ORDER TO DON´T REGEAR MY AXLES I WAS WONDERING IF INSTALLING THE MAGNUM BOX INSTEAD WOULD BE A SOLUTION I will like to know if running with 2L in the TC or Low at the magnum box all time on-road (highway) at high speed will cause some issues like premature wear or failures. So my ratios should be: 2.72 or 1.96 ON ROAD 5.33 OFF ROAD Avoiding 1:1 cause I'm keeping the stock axle gear ratio (3.73)

@MrAppltec 3 года назад

Sweet Video! What shifter setup is that? I have a divorced magnum np205 and I’m looking into different shifters.

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

This is the triple stick shifter from www.offroaddesign.com

@brycewilliam1984 3 года назад

What is your total crawl ratio in double low? I’m also curious to hear your opinion on ideal crawl ratio both for an automatic and manual transmission.

@bmg5015 3 года назад

When I first saw all the sticks I instantly thought dual transfer cases. Now with one transfer case and reducer, can it get low enough to basically walk next to it while it's moving?

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

Oh yea. Still need to figure out final ratio but it is sloooooooow

@bmg5015 3 года назад

I dig it. Great vid brother.

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

Thanks man. Final ratio is 74.37:1

@bmg5015 3 года назад

HOLLY CRAP!

@bmg5015 3 года назад

The Carr/Winters shifter is a great touch. Definitely reminds me of a trophy truck. Fantastic job brother.

@buschmaster4600 Год назад

When you do a 205 twin stick conversion, does it change the shift pattern? You would typically have a 2H, 4H, N, and 4L right? Now you have L, N, and H?

@MerricksGarage Год назад

no pattern doesn't change, you can't put the front in H and the rear in L. You have H L L and L L L and LHH

@Nik-ok9nu Год назад

You also have HHH. But, to answer the question above, the F/R are no longer controlled by a single shifter, so "2H" isn't a "thing". 2H = rear stick in H, front stick in N. But, otherwise, pattern stays same. H/N/L (no 2wd vs 4wd)

@JOHNdOE-yy2ld 3 года назад

All You need now is a sm465 with a torque splitter inFront... that would be a drive to see...

@Nik-ok9nu Год назад

My CJ-7 runs an SM465 (6.55:1 1st gear), with an NP203/D300 doubler, with a LoMax 4:1 gear set in the Dana 300, and 2.03 gearing in the New Process 203. I run 4.88:1 R&P. The doubler gives me essentially a 4 speed T-case (1:1, 2.03:1, 4:1 & 8.12:1), which with the 6.55 1st and 4.88 gears nets a crawl ratio of 260:1. SUPER low! I've never stalled it.

@ThomasSmith-fz6wq Год назад

What would a truck with a factory divorced transfer case and another transfer case mounted to the main transmission and runs the front axle with the back transfer case running the rear axle give you? Would this be the same or similar to your setup? Seems like if you ran two transfer cases each axle could run independently?

@v8felon 4 месяца назад

What if you put your trans in low😮

@steveking8851 3 года назад

You wouldn’t happen to have a video or Picts of cutting the floor and installing the shifters?

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

I have a video in the works on the install

@steveking8851 3 года назад

That would be great. I’m close to installing mine and would appreciate so guidance.

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

What I did was mount the shifters to the floor and get them dialed in there then I made the shift pan for them all to bolt too. I had the case in and out about four times

@steveking8851 3 года назад

Ord didn’t have much on the install. They did say I’d have to cut the floor or install a body lift with my current setup, so I’m removing the 2 inch up ring and swapping it for the stock rotation.

@mattrolley7288 3 года назад

I have a cammed 6.0 ls swapped k10 on tons, 4l80e and magnum box 205, 38.5s and 5.13s. I'm wanting to know what stall torque converter your running? My double low pushes threw the brakes terribly. Love the blazer and channel.

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

I am running stock TC for now. This summit 8701 was the largest I could go without upgrade. I run 4.56 gears. Sounds like a killer build

@mattrolley7288 3 года назад

@@MerricksGarage I've been running that same cam for about 2 years now. Geat upgrade. Interested in how your rig feels in double low. I had a 2900-3200 before the doubler but it was to loose for any type of steet driving so I went back to stock for now.

@MerricksGarage 3 года назад

That’s good to know. I was looking for something lower like 2200-2500. How is your idle? I am dialing mine in with the Holley system now and it is still a little rough.

@mattrolley7288 3 года назад

@@MerricksGarage Yeah I'm thinking closer to 2400-2700 for mine. It idles pretty well with that cam. Decent chop. I played with idle speed. 750-800 is where it seemed to run best. Seemed like yours was a bit low.

@colesgarage666 3 года назад

@@mattrolley7288 Is your truck a long bed or short? How far back does the 4l80 set your 205/magnum box? I have a K5 on tons and 42s. Im running a 700r4/205 now. I was given a th400 but might consider a 4l80 and Im a little concerned on the length
