Yes, they had a ton of conflict with the more liberal unions, but they also organized Nazi aligned unions. They were not very successful at recruiting members to them but they tried to. Also, occasionally they cooperated with communist unions.

the Nazis then replaced the unions with the German Labor Front (DAF)

Yes, absorption? As in unions used to be allowed to exist as independent entities, then workers were forced to join the state "union"

unless you call strike-breaking with a machine gun "backing"

Source on Nazi strike breaking before 1932/3?
