So i've seen alot of threads on solid axle swapping, Read almost all of them as I tried to search and see if this has been asked before because I know how in forum world not using the search function is basically evil ;P but almost all of the threads i've seen are swaps on vehicles from the 90's or early 2000's, so Im wondering if theres any difference at all in the process on a 2008 4x4? and if anyone has done one if there are any specific things that need to be taken into account on some of the newer models? thanks!

You don't need a new tcase they are the same case as the older trucks with a different front output. Swap the output or adapt a front shaft for it.

Click the link in my signature its a build thread for the 2005 I own it shouldn't be much if any different from your truck. Minus if you have that advance track crap. Any truck 1998 and newer will be more or less the same as yours or mine.
