there was a lister who actually did this...  had a '86 or '87 syncrowesty he
lost in a divorce, and wanted another one.   couldnt find one so he bought a
'85 westy.  then he bought a '86 syncro passenger van.  he had his mechanic
swap all the syncro stuff from the 7 pass to the '85 westy, and all the 2wd
stuff back to the 7 pass.
 and yes, both are on the road..    (no clue as to how much the labor cost
was, tho...)
