ya the button on the stick is to shift from front wheel drive to 4 wheel drive... i think when he says 'vacuum overdrive' he's talking about the 4wd shifter system...
see, when you press that button, it sends an electrical signal to a vacuum acutator that will pull on a cable on the trans, which in turn, shifts the car into 4wd... its called an electrical over vacuum over mechanical shifter... complicated and annoying in my books...
both of those trannies should bolt up to your brumby motor... sounds like they are both the same aswell... so you'll have push button 4wd on both... you'll lose your dual range trans which i think is way better... keep the 4 speed dual range! unless you're doing LOADS of highway cruising i wouldn't use the pushbutton 5 speed boxes...
