I don't think so. AFAIK the LJ80 transfer case is different, from what I hear its not as strong either. The third members are definately not interchangeable with Samurais. They do give a very good gear reduction on a 410 though  ;D. I don't think that you'll find that very little will interchange.
What condition is the LJ in? they are quite sought after these days.
