2WD Transmission in a 4WD

I found a good low mileage automatic transmission out of a 05 F-350 2 wheel drive truck. My automatic 05 F-350 is a 4x4 and I was curious if it will work in my truck. Seems all I would have to do is put the transfer case on the 2WD transmission. Anybody know if its possible ? Right now I'm having the 3/5 flare shift problem.

Depends if the 2wd tranny has the nose cone or the 4wd style tranny with the yoke bolted on. I swapped my truck from 2wd to 4wd, I used the my same tranny. Post a picture of the 2wd tranny and I can tell you.

Can't get the picture to post, But it does have 4wd style with the yoke bolted on. So basically, I just need to swap the end housings.

It is the same as mine. unbolt the yoke,slide off the yoke and install the transfercase. It is that easy.

Swap the tail housings and output shafts. Pretty easy to do.

Here is a shot of the transmission with the NP271 attached. It sure looks like you can just bolt it on.
