So, I haven't personally done it, but I did talk to AEV on the phone the other day and they confirmed that they use off the shelf 5.13 Nitro/Yukon gears for 19+ PW Prospector XLs.
I would be interested to know if they use the conversion bearings in the rear. The newer axles use a larger pinion and as far as I know nobody makes 11.5" gears lower than 4.44 with the larger pinion. AAM did make direct fit 4.56 and 5.13 for a time but no longer make them. Aftermarket gears use the conversion bearings.

theres only one version of 5.13 ever made. regardless if theyre manufacted by aam, or the yukon / nitro brands (both made over seas). they fit gm 11.5aam and all dodge ram 11.5 that ARENT coil spring. so all years 3500srw and 2500 prior to 2014. you following me so far ?
in the front,pw has thin flanged carrier and thats why they cant be installed up front without spacer or sliding the carrier 1/4" with the side adjusters but i think the driverside axle shaft end may need to be grinded to do do it this way and honestly 1/4" seems like alot to move the carrier.
dodge should of made all the trucks plug and play with gm then there would be tons of options without mcgyvering **** together

you must be refering to this article. its fairly vague to say the least https://www.demandaam.com/pressrelease/new-aam-gear-sets-for-925-front-axles?page=3

I did use this article quite a few times when trying to find the 4.56 gears with the larger pinion.

Yukon gears said they should have them by the fall for the 2019+. I've heard to stay away from Nitro a lot lately

I got the 2019 PW and put the Carli pintop and 37s and asked the guys at Nitro if they would regear. They said definitely 5.29s but they don't make them. They suggested asking Mopar if they have a 5.29 oem that you could put in and maybe its covered by the warranty. Thoughts on the regear and also anyone heard of oem 5.29?
Dated thread and deleted.
