is this what you mean ?
as Jimbo said you would also need to change the gearing in the transfer box if you did not want more power going to the front diff in the layout I mention, but 50/50 splits are available for the MT75.

I doubt a normal 4x4 front diff would be suitable to power the rear wheels but it would be straight forward to use a bigger diff as you would not have the normal restriction of the RHD rack being in the way, or you could put it to the rear of the engine rather than though the sump if you did use this configeration
