Dana 60's out of a 3/4 ton, or, dana 70 or 80 rear out of a v-10, or diesel truck. (3/4 or 1 ton) all of the heavier capacity trucks used the 60 front.
Front swap isn't too much of an ordeal, rear is more interesting, as the spring on the heavier trucks are wider. There is a write up for the axle swap in the FAQ section here I think.... I know at least one member has done it.
Also would have to address driveshafts. Not fully informed of what all is involved with those.
