if you decided to go with the newer coil set up just make sure you have everything off the frame suspension related
as far as t case thats up to you as long as you find a manual that shifts smooth and turns good or an ESOF im not sure how to check them
also with the ESOF you need the vaccum lines and tranny t case harness and the dash switch
the wiring for the dash switch shout already be in the dash just dead clipped to the back side of the dash
44Boggers,

So the output shaft on the transmission needs to be changed? What about the tail portion of the tranny case? I'm probably better served to find a spare 6spd and try to get the parts together.

As far as the front axle that I've got my eye on, I don't have access to a frame to take parts from. So where does that leave me??

As of right now, I'm leaning toward a manual controlled Transfer Case instead of ESOF and manually locking the hubs instead of a complex vacuum controller. I wondered if the wiring for the 4wd controller exists in the dash because I saw it when I changed out my radio. This seems to be the easier path unless somebody can give me clear instructions on how to retrofit my F250 with the 4wd electronic and vacuum components.
