Can i swap out the position switch in a 4l80e 2500 chevy 2000 with any 4l80e 2500 chevy 2000 because i need the one with two plugs not the one with one plug?

I bought a transmission with 56,000 miles for my truck but the position switch is different so can i change them out with out having to buy another transmission?

dont see why you cant buy a switch.might not be cheap though. what about getting your old switch and using it? but i know fords can be nasty for tranny changing even in the same year model! ya gotta wonder why the plugs are different. does wiring match? # of wires and colors?
