I looking to make sure I swap the correct one.

The transfer case is a separate unit. If you don't have a 2wd selection, you have the NP249 full time transfer case. If you DO have a 2wd selection, you have the NP242 t/case. The 242 is much prefered because it has much less problems.
People say the 42re is a weak transmission, but I got 250K miles out of mine because I don't drive it like I stole it!
