Mick,

You'd want to buy a blown tranny and ship your trans and the donor trans to
someone like Daryl at AA transaxle. Assuming of course that you are able to
do w/o your vehicle while the work is in progress. Besdies why would you want
a complete  Syncro trans in your 2WD? What would you do with the output shaft
for the front drive?
