as crash mentioned, some things require the addition of certain parts in order to fit...the shock towers require that you upgrade to the Savage X style bulkhead/diff case...they don't fit on the original bulkheads...you'll also need the X-style bumper mount/braces, as the original ones won't fit the newer style bulkheads either...

the good news is that the arms will swap straight out, unless you are running the IRC LST Shock conversion, in which case, you have to stay with the original style arms...
 
The X style towers can be modded to fit on the old style bulkheads. I have done it on one of my trucks because the newer towers seem a bit stronger and don't flex as much when using the LST shock mount kit.
 
hey guys, I have a 25 now and I'm going to use a set X style TVP's I have.

my question is what am I going to have to buy to complete the conversion?

note: I am installing new x style diffs complete with x style houseing.

thanks, komodo thought you might have some insight on this bud.

Any insight on this is aprreiated. thank you

as you've already found, to convert the diffs you need the things JT mentioned in the link you posted...

to convert the chassis plates (TVP's) you'll need the engine plate cross braces with the clearance cut into them for the rear driveline/dogbone...
 
Thank you komodo. I'm going to make use of your old TVP's

And thank you too doobee
