4l60e 4wd to 2wd conversion

Before anybody tells me to just get a 2wd transmission, hear me out. I have a 2004 5.3 with a 4wd 4l60e bolted to it, and I also have a 2001 S-10 4l60e 2wd transmission. Now my question, how difficult is it to swap out the output shaft and the tailhousing from the S-10 to the Z71 trans? Basically I have no money in either one, so I was wondering just how far down you have to go to swap shafts? I know the z71 trans works, and the S-10 I pulled out of a burn job back on 2002, so I would assume it's good also (no signs of fire damage), but wasn't sure if it was possible to swap input shafts, bellhousing and converter? Am I nuts? I'm a mechanic by trade, but not a transmission builder. Any thoughts?
