Hi, I just checked out the part numbers as I am looking at doing the same thing.

You ddnt say what year so I chose 1988 August for both the CAB and the touring.

Rear trailng arms (hubs built in)
rear disks
wheel bearings all show the same part numbers.

I reckon they will fit OK, but you will need to change the whole trailing arms. It doesn't look to bad a job.
