You might be able to but it seems to me IIRC that the 4 speed linkage is a little longer in one place or another than the 3 speed...

    Lights: I'm in the dark here!

    Wiring Question

    I have found that in my rewiring the factory chassis and body manual is the most helpful It has detailed drawings of the plugs on the switches and describes what wire goes where and what color of wire it is. I have a 69 FJ40 and this manual has helped me out like none other.
