Hope you have at least $2k available to install a live axle-you're going to need some serious modifications in order to mount one.

Why not go with the IRS from a wrecked 03 Cobra? Only thing you would need then is to have some longer intermediate shafts built-and you could then install a better brake system on the rear.
