Default 2008 ram 1500 diff

I have a 2008 ram 1500, with a 9.25 3.55 rear differential with the speed sensor. I also have a 1996 ram 1500 with a 9.25 3.55 differential with a speed sensor, but it has drum brakes. Is it possible to use that differential and change the drum to disk brakes?

Have you looked into disc brake conversion kits?

Mine is not as new as yours, but I measured my '03 disc against a '01 GenII drum 9.25. Looks like aside from ABS and driveshaft yoke, the axle flange would need to move about 5/8" and I could put a early Gen III 9.25 on a Gen II. Place to start thinking.
