Default Axle swap and fuel pump swap

I was wondering if a dana 44 out of a 1996 ram 1500 4x4 will fit my 1998 ram 1500 that also has dana 44.

Also would the fuelpump from a 1996 ram 1500 318 fit my 1995 ram 1500 with 318?

There might be some small differences (like the mounting position for the stabilizer links) IIRC, but as long as they are the same gears, you should be fine. As far as the pump goes, there may be a rollover valve issue and the plug might not be the same. They both also need to be the same size gas tank (gallons).

Just look them up(fuel pumps) on Rock Auto or some other parts store. But, like I said, you have to know the size of the tanks.
