Getting the Wheeling Fever

I have been given a Gen 2 SWB to take away, and I want to swap the steering box from it to my Gen 1 LWB 1990. I seem to remember this is possible, am I right? Also does the Gen 2 SWB have the twin piston front disc calipers, as I'll swap those too. The Gen 2 has bright blue painted front torsion bars, is this normal colour or an upgrade?
Thanks for any help you can give, Bergie.
