yes, you still need a transmission with the transfer case. the Tcase only transfers the drive from transmission to the axles.

there are lots of ford 350 crew cabs so a search will net you some useful info, but you can also look in my crew cab build thread for some more general ideas. Mine isnt using a 350 hilift body but its the same idea. the only thing I would have done differently is when cutting the back half of the cab, meaning the one you'll use for the rear doors portion of the cab cut the roof as far forward, just behind the windshield as you can, but cut the doors farther forward than that. then skin the whole roof area in one sheet of 0.030 styrene for strength.

here's my build thread. the first page or three will be the most useful as its about the basic cutting of the bodies.

f150 stepside crew cab build (blackfoot)

use thread to cut!
