GX470 transfer case swap?

I would assume that the Lexus GX470 transfer case is very similar to the V8 4th Gen 4Runner--except for the manual low-range lever. The engine is the same, I think the transmission is the same as well. Has anyone ever attempted to swap in a GX470 T-case?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Unfortunately it isn't 1984 where everything is plug and play. While I'm no engineer/master tech/etc, I'm sure there is an ECU connection somewhere that lacks in the 4runner. You mentioned it does have a manual, that tells me you would have to rig up a lever in the cabin (cutting/welding/etc).

This is probably why no one has attempted it. Doesn't sound like it's worth it.
