Rear suspension question

[1G9S9T7]

I had some questions about the rear suspension between an awd and fwd. I am in the process of swapping a fwd car to awd and I have been doing some research on it. Here are the stats on the cars: 95 GST non ABS car, donor car is a 95 GSX ABS car. I am not transfering the ABS over, it's going to be deleted. The GSX is heavily rusted. I know the obvious differences (subframe, hubs, shocks, springs etc) but what I am wondering about is if the rear trailing arms are different along with the rear knuckles and control arms. I've been researching but it's kinda cloudy. I know I read somewhere that awd knuckles and fwd knuckles are different but I found a part listing that only listed them different based on if the car was ABS or not. I just wanted to clarify so I can swap better condition parts if possible. Any input to help me out would be great. Thanks.

IF I remember correctly the difference between the FWD rear knuckle and the AWD one is that the FWD knuckle has a cap on the inside to keep dirt and other crap out of the bearing. I think I read that in the AWD conversion thread... The cap should be removable.

I've been reading through some of the different awd conversion threads and they all say to use awd rear knuckles so I am guessing the awd ones are to be used. I still can't find anything on the rear trailing arms. The ones on the donor car are stuck in because the bolts are rusted to crap. I am looking for alternative methods to cutting the frame. If all else fails, I will just cut them out. Since abs is being deleted, do I need non abs awd knuckles or does the type only apply if I plan on keeping abs?
