Depending on what is wrong with your current 221 you can probably get the parts you need from the 68 case. I think the only difference is the part that joins it to the trans. You can get misc seals and bearings from Torque King. Might be cheapest and easy way to go using the free case ( no fab work). Some like the 465 but first gear not as low as the 420 and reverse is in a better place for going between 1st and reverse when rocking out of a ditch. Good luck, Tom
