I have a 79' Ford dana 44 3/4 ton in my burb. I originally had the push button t-case (NP246 I think) in it but took it out and swapped in a manual lever t-case. The problem is that they don't have a true 2WD function. There is always power going to the front driveshaft. Not good on a lifted truck with an axle not designed for it. I'm not sure if a 95' would be the same though, mines was out of an 01'.
