Default Need help with transmission question

My transmission gave out on my 2001 GS 430, I found a good used one from a SC 430, it says it will fit on my car but is there any difference with the gearing ratios? Will it be the same? Or should I get it only from another GS430?
Even tho they are both the same A650E transmissions

same part numbers so it should definitely fit. I believe the gearing is the same, unlike the GS400 vs the GS430.

on a side note, transmissions rarely fail on the 2GS. How many miles do you have and was the fluid ever changed? Curious why it failed
