diesel ranger 2.2 NEED HELP WITH DIVORCED XFER CASE OR 4WD MAZDA TRANNY

[96RedRanger]

Hi, I have a 83 ford ranger 2.2 diesel with the 4 speed mazda tranny
I have read that i can swap my bellhousing onto a rx7 trans to gain a 5 speed, but i dont really care about that. I have also read that i can do the same with a b2200 trans, however i dont think they came in 4x4. So here is my question

Is there a transmission that i can swap in that has 4wd. It doesnt matter to me what side drop.

Or what transfer case could i divorce/use to make it 4wd. I was hoping that i could use a 1350 and wire the electric motor to work on a toggle switch

i also read and decided that a samurai divorced transfer case would be nice, or i could use a heavy ass np205

Looking under the truck i can see that im gonig to need to change my gas tank placement.

The axle im planning on using is a dana 30, I have it sitting in my garage from another failed project.
i want to mount it leafsprung, aol and have just enough lift for like 32's


soooo basicaly i need alot of help with the transfer case.

thanks is advance

if it is the tk4 i think you can swap your bell to a fm146 or fm145 from a gen one ranger

Its not, the transmission looks like this


I found out that the transmission wasnt offered in 4wd, so now im deciding what transfer case to use. A dana 24, or a samurai divorced unit

Well, Today i got my axles, I got a dana 30 and a 35 for 120 with stock springs, u bolts and all the brakes. They have 4.10s that will be perfect for my 32's
I also have a dana 24 lined up that i am debating on geting. How big is this transfer case? is this the best option for me, this is all i havent figured out yet
