depends. if you go jdm itr hubs, you need to upgrade your axles to that spec (i think its 36mm) if you go usdm itr hubs, you can keep your LS or whatever axles bc they are the same (32mm).

I'm very positive you will be able to bolt them up. At most, you're swapping over whole knuckle assemblies and forks, and they should bolt right up to your LCA. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong...

I see a lot of beating around the bush answers here.

YES, you can keep your own suspension with the 5-lug conversion. You don't need to swap the rear LCA to an ITR one. As long as you use your stock LCA in the back, you'll be good.
