Thanks,

What are the benefits of the later rear brakes?  Are they a straight
forward swap?

If you mean the pumpkin, you can do that, which would give you a 3.9
ratio which is better for highway cruising in place of the 4.22 which
gives you more low end torque.

If you meant the entire axle, you can't do that without mosdification of
the axle carrier and there is no reason to do so.
