Just check that you have a small R160 type diff in "everything needed", rather than the regular R180 that comes with a 6 speed set up.

Even if you have all the matching R180 rear hubs and drive shafts etc The existing suspension legs might have a different fixing bolt pitch at the joint with the hub carreir.

Might be easier to get a R160 diff and just whack that in rather than fiddle about.
