I have the vehicle listed above its transmission is history, scored a 2002 Trooper for free transmission is good but it's a 2wd. Both are 4l30. Can the 2wd adapt to transfer case and be installed in 4wd? Thanks

Good morning,

The output shaft of the transmissions may be different. You need to make sure the output housing is identical, otherwise, the simple answer is no, it will not work.
