Alright guys... will be doing cummins 6bt into a ZF 5 speed....
Keep the married ZF's BW1356 with a 2.79 reduction....
Or keep in twin sticked divorced Ford NP205 with 1.96 reduction and a bit more added complexity. (intermediate shaft, 2ndary mounting etc).
Leaning towards the BW1356 actually....
EDIT: I have Ford dana 60 and sterling axles
I havent bought the ZF yet.. so 4x2 divorced NP205 or 4x4 married BW1356 are both "open" options for me at this time.
