It's been a long time since I had the opportunity, or need to upgrade a '32 differential to a later style, i.e. '33 and later, therefore, I'm at a loss to tell you what modifications would be needed.
I helped a friend of mine put a '34 rear end into his '32 Vicky in about 1952. The only part I can recall is that nothing wanted to fit. Of course we were kids building cars in the back yard, in the shade of a tree. We were lucky if we had an Oxy torch and a decent set of end wrenches, a machine shop was something they talked about in the flashy car magazines.
