you got to change the shaft and the whole back half of the case, Its really the back .25 but you get the idea. The reason for this being the intermediate housing is made in to the back of the trans.

pro70golfer14 is right, you'll have to change the mainshaft along with the tailhousing, which will involve a complete teardown and rebuild. If you get your hands on a 4x4 version for the same engine, you can probably swap the main case between the two, as long as the preload on the gearset is correct.
