Default Swap rear wheel drive xmission for awd

Is it possible to swap a 2014 durango r/t rear wheel drive transmission and drop an awd trans in?

Im guessing they use all the same suspension and frame components between the 2 style to keep cost down, so all id need are the driveline components right?

Just curious. And we may be moving to alaska....

And the computers re-programmed, the transfer case, front diff, axles, sensors, 4low switch. Best to trade it in and get an awd.

This.

It's not that simple.

Yeah. The tranny alone would cost more than you'd lose in a trade.
