Don't know, but there is nothing that time an money won't modifiy. We went to trade our 86 B II 5 speed for a new one in 1990. Had to order it and when it came in, it came with auto hubs an motorized transfer case, ( ordered M-hubs, with a floor lever). Needless to say we still to this day own the 86 we bought new. The salesman said what if your wife drives into a mud hole, she then has to get out an lock the hubs, to which I replied, if she drives into the mud hole without the hubs locks she need to get muddy for being stupid in the first place.
I'd look at the transfer case of yours, then one that has the lever. I believe you can change it over w/o much trouble at all. The floor opening is bigger on the lever models, but everything else I believe can be had from a donor. The motor operated ones, (when they first came out) had to be ajusted correctly or the motors would fail offen, at the rate of $150.00-175.00 per pop. There is ajustment on the levers models as well, but it's about as hard as breathing.
Good luck,
