you need the late IRS style hubs, not the early swing-axle ones.
you need to fabricate the bearing carrier from aluminium.
you need to tweak your out axle yokes to accomodate an adapter u-joint.
you need to re-drill the hub flange for the 4 on 4.5" TR5 bolt pattern.
Then you need to install them which intails modifying the trailing arm to
allow the stub axle through and you have to fabricate longer studs to
mount the custom hub.
