Question how bout full-time 4wd

i was browsing the new venture gear web site and then driving on wet roads when it hit me... i need a transfer case that is full time or part time 4WD. so i can run around in full time 4wd in the rain and snow and still get good launches at the stop light. right now in 2WD i just spin the back tires even with the LSD. so i guess here is my question...has anybody ever swapped the T-case for a 242HD...this one looks like what i would want to use. it has the option for full time or part time 4WD, so while cruising run in 2WD for economy sake and when running in bad weather or racing the rice boys in town run in 4WD to get all the horses to the ground instead of making smoke out of rubber (i prefer to only make smoke out of fuel). what do ya all think? i know torque problems may be an issue, but maybe a rebuild before installation could fix that.
