If your gearbox and the donor have the same type of transfer case eg gear drive or chain drive the will swap
gear drive transfer has 21 spline shaft chain drive has 26 spline shaft
The petrol and diesel both have the same G52 gearboxes and the ratios are the same different bellhousings for different engines
