it is not so much the fwd motor that is the problem, if you can get an adapter so the box will bolt up to it, it would be ok, the only other things are the engine mount and exhaust manifold would be positioned differently

It could be a number of things, make sure the frt hubs are fully locking in. If they are and it is only knocking in 4wd then it coul;d be your frt cv joints, or frt wheel bearing, you could also be getting a knock caused through a failure in you frt diff.
