If you can get the rear trailing arms, it would be easier. Get the e brake lines too

Yes you can. I've done it. Good luck in getting the hub bolts out though. I had some trailing arms from a 94 Teg with discs. I ended up hacking the arms up into little pieces trying to get the bolts out (attempting to get easier access to the bolt heads), and in the end needed heat to free up the bolts.

Once I had them off the trailing arms, and painted up real pretty (black, not some ricer color) when it was time to install them on my 98 hatch (pretty new, the bolts shouldn't be seized), I had the exact same problem again, and ended up having to remove the damned trailing arms anyways. Some more heat, but no hacking this time, and they were apart.
