Well it's still a bit of time away, although I may have to end up postponing this, due to the holiday.

It's a V8 out of a 5 liter explorer, and if I remember correctly, they are going to use an F150 transfer case. I was hoping that one of the two people in the know on the shopping list would anser your question with more details, but they are slackers.
