Go here and start reading. Don't post.

Just read what they say, and don't post up questions until you've been reading for a month or two.

Either that, or go give a reputable 4X4 shop 15 or 20 thousand dollars to do everything for you with nice new shiny parts. Axle swaps can be strong, reasonably priced, or not require a TON of work and knowledge. Pick two of those three things...but you can't have all three.

this link is for rear 14bolt diffs, if you choose this route.

Three years...and I may be at the point that I can start considering that. Probably coilovers at the same time.
