kenwood TCXO unit SO-2 alternatives for Kenwood TS-450Sat

[KD2GOE]

My Kenwood TS-2000 is still down don't know if ill have it working as i don't have the money to fix it..
But i do have a Kenwood TS-450Sat Talking to my friends the thing is drifting up and down with temp changes.. I have 4 20.000Mhz TCXO crystals sitting over here that i think i can use. but it needs a large "kenwood SO-2 TCXO" and the crystals i have will not fit in its place..
I am guessing it is just as simple as making an adapter with a small PCB and adapting the +5v, clock single and ground? to 3 of the 4 pins on the TCXO crystal i have...?

i ended up getting one of my TCXO crystals to work in it.. just had to mount it in an unorthodox manner...
