Gotta be hanging up on something. So far as I know, nothing really changed on the t-case over the years, aside from shift pattern, and if it has provision for VSS or not. Might try doing a bit of measuring, see how far the shaft sticks out of the trans, and how deep the input hub on the t-case is.

You may need to change the input shaft on the transfer case. The NP231 and NP241 will both bolt to the 46RE.
