63 swb 2x4 to 4x4 questions

I recently traded for a 63 chevy short wide box 2wd with bad motor and I want to make it 4x4, so I bought a wrecked 87 suburban with fuel injected 350 and 700r4.Now the questions are has anyone used the truckarm suspension with coils and just put the axel under the arm. How does it ride and handle ? I haven't been able to find any pics of this on the forums ,does anybody know of any? Thanks
