Rear axle swap for 2004 Ranger 2wd?

[Stormin Norman]

I have a 2004 Ranger S/C 2wd 3.0l V6 5 speed and would love to have rear disc brakes and limited slip axle. It seems like finding a 2010 or 2011 assembly in a wrecking yard would be a simple solution but am I missing something? Appreciate hearing your thoughts and suggestions.

Thanks!

I converted my Aerostar from rear drum to disc brakes. Your proportioning valve and vacuum booster may need to be upgraded too.
