Any R2 transmission fits with minimal effort, ignoring the engine:
The early ones behind 302s, have 1/2" holes and the shifter is very close to dash in 1st/3rd/5th (hole in tunnel needs to be moved forward a trace)
The later ones behind 4.2 V6s have 12mm holes and the shifter is more/less in same position as R1. (Holes need to be enlarged to 1/2" to bolt to 302, probably not concern for you)
There is also T-Bird version of the R2; lower ratio 1st (closer to R1), shifter is way back (like against seats) - closer to what a T5 swap would yield.
For all R2s, you can swap the 4.2 top cover on and have shifter in OEM location, but easiest to get right one to start with...
R2 transmission has 31 spline output shaft so doesn't bolt to BW1354 transfer case/use R1 slip yoke.
2WD version is more/less same length as R1, so swapping an R2 slip yoke onto R1 driveshaft gets you rolling without any addition mods.
The "ideal" 4WD transfer case is BW4406 - within 1" of same width as 1354, so fits with room to spare between frame rails; longer than OEM transfer case and uses slip yoke (at least one I played with did). So, you need rear drive shaft with 31 spline slip yoke. BW4404 is found in 96-03 F-150s and Expeditions, same pin out for electric shift (if that is important to you).
The more common 1356 transfer case is ~3" wider than 1354, so is very tight fit - it will be in "C" of the frame rail (some "massaging" might be required to fit). Again same length/slip yoke as 4406; same electric shift pin out as 1354.
I can't remember front drive shaft - I went with NP242 so wasn't relevant. FWIW, NP242 is same width as BW4406.
