its a straight swap, you'll need upper and lower control arms, new exhaust tips, maybe a drive shaft and of course the rear end

you may want a 99+ rear end, as it would fit the body better. the 94-98's are shorter - which fits wider tires but you'd need a different wheel backspacing that what you have now
