944 trailing arms

How much trouble is required to mount the rear trailing arms on a 73 super? I also heard that you need 2 bolt 74 and up front struts for the front brakes. Is this correct and how much trouble, if any, is the swap. I am looking at a MAXX strut set-up from Topline would this correct this issue. I know the 944 thing is kind of tired, but I would be quite thankful for any help. I am very new to the GL thing. But, I have been really enthused about the style and power since seeing a big feature in VW Trends 4-5 years ago that featured a sweet blue GL with lots of Remmel parts.

Have you tried a search on here for 944 ali arms, or SB to 944 strut conversions? There's plenty of threads on here already about the subject. I'm still kinda new here myself, and asked the same kinds of questions.
