I finally figured it all out and here is my list of parts and wiring adds and changes. My truck is an 02 QC 2wd. 4wd wheel bearing parts might be different. After you swap the ABS you will need a good scanner that can set the pinion factor number for your tire size in the ABS.
I'm using a 05 Ram ECM, with a modified 03-04 4.7 Dakota under hood wiring harness and 05 Dakota steering wheel mounted to the 02 Dakota steering shaft. The parts need to make this work with the 04-older trucks are the:
5.7 Ram ABS module
Dakota/Durango front Wheel bearing with ABS tone ring or listed as 4 wheel ABS sensor. Also front ABS sensor
05-up Dakota/Ram/Durango steering wheel buttons

Wiring:
From the ABS plug add a wire to Pin2 and run to the ECM C1 plug pin #8, this is for the VSS #2 signal
Add 2 pins to the ABS plug at pins 5 and 10 for the speed sensor wires. There is already a wire on pin 10 of the Dakota ABS, you can remove it.

Add 3 wires from the ECM to go to the CC switches. There is a plug under the steering column that connects to the clock spring. All 3 wires run from the ECM C3 plug
C3 #15 to clock spring Pin5
C3 #34 to clock spring Pin 4
C3# 18 to clock spring Pin 3

Brake Switch #2 signal
At the ECM C3 plug, move Pin #7 to position #14
Add +12v to the blue/red #3 wire at the Dakota old Cruise Control plug. You can tap the 12v feed on the C1 plug pin#29 Red/Wht wire.

Got the wheel bearing and ABS sensor from Rock Auto.

use instead.

Here is the clock spring plug under the steering column. Move pin#3 to position 6, this is for the horn.
Now you can use 3, 4, and 5 on this plug for the 3 wires to the ECM.

To swap the ABS module you will need to remove these 3 bolts from under the ABS. You must remove the inner fender liner on the drives side to gain access to them.

Here you can see the ABS signal wire and a new brake line. I installed 03 Durango front brakes at the same time I installed the ABS wheel bearing. I highly recommend the larger 03-4 style brakes. I have a set of new rotors and pads for the bigger brakes now.

Modifying the 05 steering wheel to fit to the 02 Dakota shaft. The problem here is the Dakota shaft has a flat side and the 05 wheel has splines. We drilled out the 05 wheel and drilled and tapped a set screw to hold it to the flat side of the Dakota shaft. The wheel was tight but I just didn't like it. I am going to either install the 05 splined shaft onto the last piece of the 02 Dakota shaft or I am testing making a set of Dakota buttons work. The CC circuits are not the same so I am building my own board with small switches and resistors. Right now I would be happy with the 02 Dakota steering wheel and just the On/Off and Set buttons working.

My 02 CC button project in progress. These are just the test buttons, I have a nice set in my truck.
