Chaps - my car doesn't seem to have a transfer box module, when i search real oem for my car (june 2001) it doesn't have one listed, but does on later cars. 

Anyone know if this is correct, early cars done have them?

Cheers!

It's a fixed ratio box so you'll need to remove it.  There are no electronics involved at all.  Permanent 60:40 ratio I believe.  Nothing to 'deactivate'.
