Default 4-Link 9" ???


I checked the search area and didn't find much.
I am on a time line to get the car to the paint booth now that it's running. I would like to build the rearend now before going to paint.
69 N.O.S. RATT tempted me with this pic of his Fab9 and now I want one! Problem is, I don't want to cut out my storage boxes to attach the 4-link. Can I use the trailing arm pockets or mod that area?
Have any of my CF brothers done this? Pics and DETAILED instructions would be helpful.
I saw a few 1/4 milers in BG KY last year with a 9" and it looked like they had just welded the axle to the trailing arms. Simple and effective for racing but questionable for the street. I wish I had paid more attention to detail but wasn't contemplating this mod then.
