AFAIK, it is almost always possible to change mods while in port, between patrols. I only know of one mod - for SH4 - that must be activated at career start. Just don't touch JSGME if you plan to reload a mid-patrol save. Even then, some mods (sound-only mods, for instance) can probably be changed mid-patrol with no ill effects, but I'd avoid it.
You might rename your entire saved game folder (in Documents). Then do all the reinstalling. Finally, change the saved games folder back to SH3 (or whatever you are using if you have multiple installs). That might cure your corrupt saves problem. (Might not, too....) Or, as happened to me, wait until nearly every save you make CTD's and it becomes impossible to complete a patrol. I reached the point where I couldn't advance my career because of the bad saves. That's when I gave up and decided I had to fix the problem. If you're not there yet, maybe it's worth pressing on. But if the CTDs get too frustrating, know that you don't have to live with the problem or give up on the game.
