the output shaft on the 2wd tranny wont fit the transfercase. you need a new tranny.

You could run a divorced transfer case, but that would require a lot of modifications. Like metal said, you would be far better off just getting a 4x4 transmission.

if its a manual you will want a 4x4 tranny that was behind the same engine as yours (2.3L, 3.0L, or 4.0L) as the bellhousing is different for each engine.
