    Bam Bam has a single stick 18 in now.
    I have a twin stick 18 out of a M38 A1. Unsure what year.
    Think I want to go with the twin stick, even though the single stick is different behind the F head.
    They should swap out with no trouble correct?

    Correct, unless your single stick is a large hole case, but if I'm reading this correctly it's behind an Fhead which means it should be a T-90 and small hole case. In that case it will bolt right up. Just make sure whether you have a 29 or 26 tooth transfer case input and use the drive gear accordingly. The M38a1 should be a 26 tooth, but not sure about your single stick. Nickmil.

    Can't you also just swap out the front output bearing retainer and shift rails if the T cases aren't interchangeable?

    Yup, but requires disassembly of the transfer case. Nickmil.
