You can. I didn’t know you could do that until the man who rebuilt mine said that you could swap O/D tails. I passed up so many good, low mileage transmissions lol!

Just make sure the trans you get is pre 2000. And that is if your OD unit is good. What's wrong with the transmission? The fix may be easier than doing all the extra work.
