Default 2wd-4wd cosworth steering coupling conversion

Can i go and buy a normal 4wd steering coupling which is all metal and fit it to my 2wd cosworth.
I brought a new poly bush for my 2wd one which has failed and i hate doing 1 job twice. Will the 4x4 one be a direct swap or is there some modifing?

the 4x4 one is too long, so will need cutting down and welding (and it's not all metal)
