driver side drop transfer case - front axle swap

[hikui_oni]

working on a 68 k10 and i just picked up my donor 2001 sierra.... LM7, 4L60E... i havent ID'ed the tcase yet but i can if that's important to answer my question.

i would like to use as much as i can out of this truck, ideally swap the entire drivetrain. i know the transfer case is going to drop out to the opposite side and that most people opt for the NP205 to solve this...

outside of needing driveshafts to fit, shorten the axle, and remount the leaf spring perches... is it possible to swap out the front axle to fix this problem?

i can't seem to find any documented examples to follow for this so i'm looking for guidance. what am i missing?
