2wd 7.5 vs IFS 7.5 fitment non-Taco

Will these gears swap? The reason why I ask is because I have a 7.5 4.56 Precision Gear with a limited slip and I would like to use it in the front. Is it possible? I mean just the guts not the carrier.

yep. however, the rear 7.5 uses a third member and the carrier bolts into the axle housing on the front like a dana axle, so you'd need to re-set the gears to swap them over.

Yeah I dont care about that. I knew that has to be done. Will the limited slip fit as well? I may be getting gears from a member here which would be 4.88's. I will sell the 4.56's if all is well.
