The front case of the transfer is different the shift mechanism is completly different and there is no detent ball&spring to lock it in 4WD (uses vacume) and the case is not drilled for the detent ball and is a odd ball tread size (15mm from memory) if you thinking of drillin it. I set up the vacume shift its easy i used a vacum valve from a toyota air cond idle up and fitted a dash switch to engage 4wd. Connect one side of the valve to you brake vacuum tank and the other to the actuator on the transfer . when the valve is powered up you have 4WD .
