Default 4.1 transfer case swap

I have an 08 2 door JK Sahara with a 3.8 and a 6 speed and want to swap in a Rubicon transfer case. Is this a direct swap or will I need to change ant other parts such as driveshafts?

Direct swap. We took mine out and inserted in my son's 2016 Sport. Then he goes and sells the truck and buys a JKUR . It is a big job on a garage floor but doable. Takes about 5-6hours if you don't stop for a beer break.
