Back in ‘22, I got a Diesel Ram 2500 in the BigHorn package that came with the 12.1” Uconnect 5 w/ navigation infotainment screen.
This year, I upgraded my truck to the newer 2024 model but got a Tradesman with the 8.4” Uconnect 5 w/o nav system. Here’s the deal….
I still currently have my ‘22 BigHorn and really loved having the 12.1” system and I’d like to know if I could somehow swap the systems around to each truck….I’ll give you more details on each truck below….

2022 Ram 2500 BigHorn 6.7L Cummins TurboDiesel

-12.1” Uconnect 5 w/ navigation infotainment system
-5” digital cluster display (not the big digital one offered in Limited models”
-Rear and front parking sensors
-Premium Alpine Sound System
-Steering wheel audio control

2024 Ram 2500 Tradesman 6.7L Cummins TurboDiesel

-8.4” Uconnect 5 w/o navigation infotainment system
-Smaller cluster display, I believe it’s like 3”
-No front or rear parking sensors
-Regular sound system
-No steering wheel audio control

If it were at all possible to swap these systems around each truck, what would I need as in parts or would it not be possible and would I just have to get a new one for the “24?
