Post Rear End differential swap out

I am trying to swap out a 2002 complete rear end axel with a 2000. But the 02h has disc brakes the 00 has drum, will they hook up the same or can they be changed out?

Welcome to the site. However, youre question would be better suited and possibly answered in the 2nd Gen section.

There may be differences with the width of the springs. You'll have to do some measuring. If you hook up the newer rear to your existing brake system, your proportioning will be off.
