E250 4WD, 4X4 conversion

I have a 99 E250 extended wheelbase, high-top (TurtleTop) van that is my motovan project. It hauls and tows MCs, trailers and boats. I am here researching for information on best donor parts vehicle for converting the motovan to 4WD. Does not seem to be much if any info on this subject.
Thanks for anyone that has done this or can point me to the best forum or website to research.

There's a person on The Expedition Portal that did his own using Ford truck parts.
I believe there may be mote.
UJOINT I believe is a sponsor, as well there are many who have used WELDTEC.
VanCity Van lVfe is getting ready to have a Weldtec kit installed and a Ford rear end. He will prolly document it on his YT channel.
