If you use the 4WD version of the NP-435, BW T-18/19, or ZF S5-42, you won't need any adapters. At most, you'll need to move the crossmember, change the driveshafts' lengths, and do something about the floorpan adapter where the shifters stick thru. If you want to keep the OD and have a granny 1st, go with the ZF, but bring your wallet!
