to start with...i have a 2wd transmission (5 speed), i'd be happy to sell/trade you.

now, i have not swapped the tails on a transmission, but i understand it to be rather involved. i read a thread about it recently on 4x4parts.com in the SAS section and if i remember correctly, it was more of a pain than a regular transmission swap.

wouldn't it just be easier to built a new custom crossmember to make room for your front driveshaft? i had to do that with my SAS. swapping tranmission and putting a divorced case opens a whole new can of worms. new shifters and linkage. new front and rear driveshafts to start with. and you still have to build some sort of custom crossmember to mount your divorced case.

what do your driveline angles look like now? are you currently even able to run a front driveshaft?
