No offense, but what exactly is your question? According to you everthing is bolt on and you know everything you need, so what do you need to know from anybody here?

conversions
i agree everything is just bolt in,they do not make manual bodies different from auto bodies,i dont know how many auto to manual conversions i have made in mustangs....you just need to research what additional parts make a 4wd,and get those and add them,hell my 2wd even still have all the places to put the 4wd controls.
my suggestion,just look at what you don't have that a 4wd has and add them.
i love projects like this!!! and mine always come out good as factory.
just don't forget to bring allot of drive and determination.
good luck,it can be done!

Having all the parts is the trick, it seems. The transmission is important, because the tail shafts are different. Hopefully you have a manual shift transfer case, that will make things a LOT easier. The hole is even already in the floor for the shift lever.
You might have to have the rear drive shaft modified, unless you got one of those too (from the same wheel base truck as yours, etc). The transfer case moves the start of the drive shaft back so it needs to be shorter.
You'll need leaf springs, I think. And spring hangers, and probably new u-bolts. You might need brake stuff unless they're already on the axle.
There are a lot of parts to think about but if you can get them all together, it shouldn't be a monumental task.
