stock ds will work with conversion u-joint..... as fo the torque arm make sure u use the correct holes on the rear mount(not like u can really mess that up, it only fits one way). for the cross memeber i had to put a screw driver in one of the holes and pry it up into postion. then put your bolts in, an extra person is nice even tho i didnt have one
i wound up with a huge gash in my head and a mild concusion due to that torque arm not lining up LOL

there were 2 sets of holes the the T/A i used the first set, where as i used the 2nd set for my stock rear. but i doesnt look like i can use the 2nd set casue it looks like it would hit the body of the car. i tried prying but with no luck.

Oh yes, this can be a big pain. When you disconnect things, sometimes the rear moves out of position from the force of the springs. I jack my rear up by the spring perch on the driver's side to get it closer. Then I find a long bar to run through the torque arm to pry it into place. It helps to get a buddy to help with the prying, pulling and twisting to get it lined up right. Just keep at it and it'll eventually go in.
yea that is what i had to do, everything is in now and looks good. i still had to adjust the T/A all the way back and i cant get my LCA to the bottom hole on my relocation bracket.
Thanks everyone for you help
