Is the suspension different front and back? could i use 2/3gen ram parts, would they bolt up?
would the seats from 2/3 gen fit in our cabs?
Im guessing the engines are the same expect most of our
carbureted and 2/3 gens are fuel injected, would the heads/headers
be changeable?

Gen 2 V8's would be Magnum motors.
Snippet from moparmusclemagazine:
Making the change to Magnum heads is a simple swap. All stock components can be used, however, Magnum engines oil the valvetrain through the pushrods as opposed to LA-style engines. Since all Magnum engines were equipped with factory hydraulic-roller camshafts, using the Magnum heads in conjunction with an LA block and a hydraulic flat tappet cam requires custom-length pushrods.

I believe it was 92 and 93, but maybe just 93. the 318 is Magnum from the factory. That's one of the reasons I say 93 is the best Ram made.
edit:
My point, the engines from the early 2nd gens should swap over relativly easily. The wireing harness and computer may be a differant issue though.
