This should help get my thoughts across.
 
On the x5, this is where the xfer case would bolt onto
on my land rover, among other vehicles, uses this extension housing.
It will become clear whenever you take a closer look at it yourself, but your move James. lol |
I forgot to reply to this when you first posted these pics, but the bellhousing, transfer case, etc pics that you posted are irrelevant since whoever does this is going to be swapping in the 540/M5 transmission in anyways, so unless they're attempting to somehow keep the AWD system, all that would be required after the trans swap would be a driveline as I did in the 7.
