Default 2 wheel to 4 wheel

Ello all. What all would I need to convert a 2 wheel drive manual tranny to 4 wheel drive?

Yes replace it, I also mention the main shaft bearing for replacement. How much did you get the 2wd nv4500? Due to them having a main shaft problems, I would just get a main shaft for yours and then you know its brand new. But you still need the output cover

Ok, well the guy wanted 1000 for it. It comes with everything to convert it he said. I just didn't know if it would be worth it
