Default Rear axle swap

Would a rear axle off a 99 dodge ram 1500 work on my 97 dodge ram 1500? Both are 355s

Just use your old sensor everything else is the same. Driveshaft length doesn't matter because you are using yours. That only matters if you are trying to use all the parts from a different truck
