Yep on the 3rd. On the axles, the brake backing plates are different between the coil and leaf sprung trucks. I think parts are swappable, but would require pressing off the bearings and pressing them back on.

The coil sprung 4Runner axle shafts are ~3/8" longer than the leaf sprung axles and may bottom out in a leaf sprung housing before the bearing retainer makes contact with the housing.

Yes, you should be able to. As I posted, the 3rds swap just fine.
