Convert a live axle diff to IRS

[thailoz]

Ok first a bit about my situation I am an expat living in Thailand and have just started getting my workshop sorted to build the roadster.

My problem being is lack of donor cars here in Thailand.
Things like the sierra are rare as hens teeth
Mx5 are way too expensive

so my choice is to mix and match I know i can find a live axle from an old Toyota corolla

so what I was thinking is could I cut the axle and re weld the bearing and seal carriers back on the get some drive shafts to fit I.e from a front wheel drive car as they will be easy to get along with front hubs of said car for my uprights.

any Ideas??
