Found some pretty nasty cracks in my back rim so looking for a replacement - I’ve found one where the ERD is 3mm less.
I’ve not got much a clue with this sort of thing, but if we were all betting men, would it be a straight swap?

ERD is 3mm less
Spokes on the existing build would have to be verging on too short to make a 3mm drop in ERD viable. Spokes are cheap, pick the best rim for the job and get new spokes.
Also, you're unlikely to love the 3mm drop in rim internal width.
