Default Drum to disc brakes
2000 ram 1500 4x4. Is it possible to take the same rear end off a junkyard truck with disc brakes and bolt up to my truck? Or would a full conversion need to be done?

Did the 02 and up 1500 use the corporate 9.25 axle? I thought they went with some other brand???

What year truck are you using as the donor truck that has the disc brake rear?

From memory, the first of the disc brake rear axles (02?) has to have the spring perches moved to fit earlier years.
