My credo
You can only polish a turd so many times
Just trying to figure out everything I need to get or do in order to power my bronco 2 with my 5.0 transmission and transfer case out of a 94 f150 4x4

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
What engine?

That should work. Engine, transmission, transfer case, wiring harness and ecu. But you will want the front end brackets (alternator, PS pump, A/C compressor, etc) from an Explorer. Otherwise, you'll have trouble with fan/radiator interference.

One problem you'll run into is the 1356 transfer case has a HUGE offset, might need to change to something narrower like the 4406 out of a '97-03 F150
