rr axles are a bit wider
its a balls ache to get around drag link and trac-rod to clear the leaf springs due to the steering arm location.. you gotta change the brakes to suit the rr system on the front anall

I didn't do it, but it looks relatively simple, I'll try and get you some close up photos if you like
i wouldn't bother, just fix the breaks you have.
if you start swapping axle's I'm not sure but the MOT man may say no and send you off for a SVA.
A set of well adjusted good conditions standard breaks should be able to lock up all 4 wheels at any speed you like.
How much stopping power do you want ?

Mine went through its last MOT with them on, and this one has done the same...
