[QUOTE="wheelhopper, post: 9408013, member: 32430"] I just did this. It is not a bolt in deal. There is some minor fabing that has to be done. If you are going to pay a shop to do the work, it is not worth it. If you can handle it yourself or have a the help of a knowledgable tech, then go for it. The upper control arms are not even used, so no reinforcement necessary. The only reason I did the swap was because I OT my car and I need rear discs. I happened to have a complete IRS that I got for cheap (plus some extras) plus some time on my hands, so I did it. The biggest PITA is the rear brake lines and the rear IRS subframe mounts. I was lucky enough to be friends with the owner of Competition Speed and Sound, in Maryland. He was very accomadting with his shop and time to make this swap happen. We actually just got it on the ground yesterday and still need to sort out some soft brakes. I think they may just need to be bled. [/QUOTE]
