Pm Shep and Ball, our other Darwinites...
If you have the money, get some 6.5 crawler gears for the 1.3 transfer case, they have a lifetime warrantly.
not quite,
I'm 300k's south and shep is a few hundred k's somewhere east of Darwin now.
I wouldn't bother stuffing around putting anything else other than the 1.6 vitara into a sierra. It's been done often and the parts are available to bolt it straight in.
When shep get his internet back it would be worth asking him if he wants to sell his engine and conversion that he has left here in the swb.
I know he also lined up another vitara motor in Darwin that would just need the conversion kit, but he didn't pick it up before he left.
