I'm not sure on the manuals, but I know the Auto transmissions between a 2wd and 4wd are not interchangable due to different tailshaft lengths. I would suspect the same is true for the manual transmission as well, you'd probably need one from an 4wd vehicle.

I like working on cars, trucks, jeeps, bikes, even lawnmowers... but...
that seems like an awful big project for the benefits. You might be better off selling them both, and buying one that has the set-up that you desire.
By the time you factor in all the fluids, possible wiring harnessess, nuts, bolts, hassels, beverages for you and your buddies, not to mention your time, you could have unloaded both, bought the one you wanted, and been upgrading the HP and suspension.
Probably while saving yourself time and money...
unless of course you own a boneyard.
Good-luck,
remember, before you even turn a wrench, planning and good decisions are the most important part of any project.
