Currently, how much can you amputate/harvest from a human pawn ? 4 limbs, stomach, 1 kidney, 1 lung, 2 ears, 2 eyes...

I don't want to sound gore, just sci-fi, like the RimWorld lore is.

So what's if the ultimate organ of a pawn was just the brain ? You could make surrogate organs from current mods much more interesting and open a lot of new aspects.

For a example, you could replace an old body by a new one, like a prisoner's one or make a pawn a transcendent humanlike.

That would require completely changing how the body is "designed" and would require the brain to be the main body part instead of the torso/body.  It would make sense from a "what is actually a person" perspective where the brain is central to that but, from a "how would you describe the make up of the whole body" it makes sense for the torso to be central.
(2*b)||!(2*b) - That is the question.
There are 10 kinds of people in this world - those that understand binary and those that don't.

a method that gives your older colonists a new body would be very interesting.
There is already bionic parts, but what about a whole bionic body to transfer the mind of a colonist into,
like in ghost in the shell.

Or since we are on a back water planet why not something more in line with Rifts (TTRPG) Full Conversion Borg?

you should describe what will happen next, what will happen with pawn name, skills, relationship, will pawn keep his "wife" and "family".

currently you want some feature, but provide zero useful information about what exactly this feature is.

Indeed, It is just an idea with not much details.
