yes it will fit but you must change the axles, brakes, etc pretty much you will use the housing and center unit.

Think everything should fit minus the brakes. I had a expanded view of the rear form a dealer that had all the part numbers and the page had it listed from the 80's till 97 I think.

shouldnt be very hard at all.
if you have a sn95 right now all you need is axles, you can use ur stock brakes.
and you can buy aftermarket axles for as little as 90 a pair or 200ish a pair for the nice mosers.

if the axles are from an 8.8 and the splines on the ends are in good shape, then you will be good to go.
i wasnt sure if you had an 8.8 or 7.5, and i dont think a 7.5 axle is the same as a 8.8
but like i said, if you already have an 8.8 then you will have everything you need as long as the axles arent damaged.
