Suspension setup/design between the DC2 and DC5 is completely different. I have no idea how the two could possibly be interchangable.

No, the two are completely different in form and function.

the only reason that i can think of why there arent any out there is because of the lower control arm bushings. You would have to swap it for a spherical bearing or maybe mount the traction bars in the rear of the subframe instead of the front chassis area.

Im not sure, but the dumbass who said to google it is an idiot.
