Just wanted to ask if it is possible to convert my swing axle torsion to a irs torsion i mean can i just make tabs bor the trailing arms or do i just need to change my torsion one of my buddys said we could just weld some mounts but im not sure any help would be great

yea you can buy the brackets to weld in yours and convert it over just make sure that you get them aligned right. they also sell a jig for welding them in.chad

You can re-use your spring plates, but you will have to shorten and redrill them. Thats actually a slick way to go , then you dont have the "stump-catcher" stickin out from the torsion like regular IRS.
