  1. This is exactly the info I've been looking for, Moses. Many thanks! Weight, length, ratios, parts availability and price, adapters available, all these things I could find out online, but this one question has eluded me for weeks, until now. With nothing to chose between the two for noise, my decision can focus on other factors. Both these boxes are relatively bullet-proof, both will fit within the length restrictions, and both are generally available at reasonable prices in my area. The decision may come down simply to which one I can find in the best condition for the best price at the time. The background here, is that I'm planning out my new project, a replacement for my current vehicle. This to be my sole daily driver, not a weekend hobby. Our climate, my location, and my work responsibilities make a 4WD pretty much a necessity, but year-round it will do many hours of pavement driving, so I needed to consider noise, if there was a clear-cut difference. You've removed that concern for me. Thank you again!
  2. I don't doubt that there have been umpteen NP435 vs SM465 comparisons, and I've read quite a few this last few days while trying to Google up the answer to this question. I've also posted the question on a number of truck forums, all with no luck. I'm hoping that someone who's had experience with both might be able to offer some insight. Given the choice between the NP435 and the SM465, both in good working order, is one or the other typically noisier? Old-style truck transmissions aren't the quietest on the highway, I know, but I'm just wondering if there tends to be any difference in noise level between the two.
