James, if one put in a 540 transmission and wanted to keep the AWD odds are most likely the tail shaft can be unbolted and the transfer case fitted on as long as the splines are the same.

Now as I say this my only real life experience with this is on old fords... we made a 2wd bronco the same weekend a making an E150 van 4wd. Bronco got lowered sport suspension and hopped up 351w w/5 speed manual and the van got 4" lift w/38" TSL boggers and a built 351c paired to a beefed up C6 auto. (that was a fun mudder!)
