Nope, won't work. You need the correct part to fix it. None of the 2wd stuff will swap.

They aren't even the same basic design; you could possibly make it fit by ripping out the CV on that side and swapping it spindle and all; but the time and effort would, IMO, overwrite the savings.

Especially since the Timken is under $125 at RockAuto (and everything else is less!)

Do it right the first time; don't try to jerry rig it and screw the truck up worse.
