In your 74 w200 there was not a 383 available.
A 435 and a 205 transfer yes probably.

There is tons of info available here but not so much for trucks newer than 71.

Factory LU-2 winch.

What is wrong with the NP435 you currently have? Many of the 383 trucks came with a NP445, but that is going to be harder to find.
