How much of a pain in the a$$ will it be to swap my rear out when I go down and look at the 49 Ford.

I also got a 73 Chevy there (Moms) and was just wondering cause I got 2.73 gears in my 85 according to the RPO codes . I;ll have to check but I believe the 73 has to better than that. Is it a days job, less, more? What can I expect out of it. Anything to look out for? If this Ford pans out, I may be selling the 85. Figures, I finished the interioir tonight.. Stock blue, with black headliner, new black carpet. panels around the door handle cup redid in black. bottom of door black with th vent still blue. came out super nice i think.
