Paul,

What I did was to remove the subframe, and remove the hub backplates from suspension arms, and made some wishbones and rear uprights.

Keep the diff (inc top rubber bush and large mounting bolts)/drive shafts/drum assemblies (inc h/brake cable) etc.

Bin the rest.

Buy Tiger Avon book, and base IRS on that.
