The big question is does your transfer case have the drive gear in it or do you have to split the case to fit it. Pull off the PTO cover on passenger side of transfer box to see if you have the gear.
Good luck

well that may be a little difficult :) as i don't have the truck yet, but keep finding automatic 4.2s, i would prefer a manual but may not have a lot of choice!!
