Change the pinion flange in the rear end with with the one off a solid axle....then mock ip your t5 driveshaft if its too long then trim a lil bit off the yoke were it goes into the tranny...

+1 use your stock driveshaft and change the flange if IRS is 03-04, 99-01 IRS use the same flange which bolts right up. I used my stock driveshaft and didn't change flanges when swapping a 99 IRS a while back
