Your truck won't need the same parts as he has on his. Your A2 has a longer Jackshaft than his was. Your transmission also sits way further forward than the A1 trucks. It will be alot more difficult with a good many different parts
Would have been easier to deslot the transfer case mount brackets It will slide back about 3 inches if you slot the mount. The rear and front drive shafts have enough travel that it won't hurt em to move in or out that far
Its the same companion flange in the transfer case that the front axle output uses
It's hard to make a shaft under 18 inches.
From the center or the 1710 joint to the end of the companion flange is 3in on the shaft side

Rear transmission mounts are not always needed. The mount is designed to flex with torque to keep the tailshaft in line. Over support any weight.
You are running just a 250. It won't be torqueing that much back there.
Bolt the angle iron to the frame rail and use the leaf pack...
