D50TTB Part Interchangeability

I have a D50TTB off of an 85 snowfighter to replace the blow diff in my 97's D50TTB. Will the knuckles from 97 swap onto the 85 axle? I want to retain the newer brakes.

Well I wasn't sure if I could get the 3rd member out while in the truck but after I posted this I looked at it a little better and I think you're right. That's definitely my best option.
