You can swap the gear and use your electrical one. As far as not shifting into 4 low sometimes it's a bit hard on a bench. Put a wrench on the nut and work it a bit and it should eventually go in. I've found most people never use it and it takes some time getting it to engage.

i cant get the gear off, and they fit dif length wise so they cant be switched.

The older version uses a long gear and short attachment and the newer uses a shorter gear and long attachment. When I put a 91 model (mechanical speedo) 231 in my 93 ZJ (electrical speedo) I swapped the gear from the the 249 to the 231 and used my factory electrical connector. Worked fine and still does.
