As far as the swap goes, it all depends on your specific set of skills. It just takes time to process through the adapter plates, mounts, and belt systems.
if im correct 3.42 gears came in 4X2 pickup is it easy to swap them on to 4X4 pickup? what size tires are best?

Sam at parts-barn can probably get one to you.

I drilled the block on mine, both sides actually. driver side for the dipstick, and passenger side for the turbo oil drain. Go slow and use cutting oil I had to get a longer drill bit for the driver side, to keep the angle perpendicular with the flat spot on the block.

Give them a call and ask for Sam, see if maybe he can send you something. I'm not sure how up-to-date the website is, the website is new.
