Made a decision(ish). I'm going to 'cheap' out by buying the Novak adapter then putting it back together as is. I'd like to upgrade the front output - and very well may after I pull the t-case apart - but won't at this moment (unless, it's the noise I'm hearing in 4wd, then I may change my mind again). I'm getting a much lower 1st gear with the NV4500, so I may not need or want 4:1 gears. Not using the Atlas because it's 1 1/2" longer overall, and I actually gain some driveshaft length with this conversion....
It struck me this morning that I'll be taking the last, mechanical part out of this vehicle that was made by Toyota when the transmission goes... ah well, to me the spirit of Toyota is using the best parts available* - so there it is.
*I'll put feathers on that - when the '40 came out, Jeeps were powered by 4 cyl motors...
