5 speed swap question

Looking for a donor truck on craigslist, I found a 2wd 5speed truck with a blown motor for 1500. My truck is a 4x4, what parts would I be missing if I went with a 2wd donor truck.

The tail shaft.
Take it to a trans shop and they can install it. It's the first piece to go in when building a trans and the last to come out when disassembling.

the back half of the transmission.
different rear case half and different output shaft,
total rebuild to change them. unless the 2wd trans is out of a superduty than it is the same as a 4X4 as the emergency brake mounts the same way as the transfer case
