77' Newbie needs direction

Hey fellas. Just wanted to post to say hello and get some advice. Just bought a 1977 F-150 LWB, 460, C-6, NP203. I am wanting to build a reliable mudder. Not to be absolutely ragged on but tough enough to handle some muck every once in a while. What is everyone's opinion about swapping the c-6 for a NP435 and the NP203 for a NP205? The units are a married setup. I am assuming the front axle isn't the original one since it has manual locking hubs. I've been getting all types of feedback so any opinions would be appreciated.
