As the title says, will they swap over?

Yes it is a "car" 12 bolt based design. There is car 12's or truck 12's, thats the difference.

I take it you are trying to find something that will run quietly? Also, start out with a .029 pinion shim and see what kinda contact pattern you get. I bet it sets right up with an OEM gear, the aftermarket housings stay true to the OEM pinion centerlines.
