Done it several times. It all depends on which width axle you get. My '94 model had a C&C rear axle in it that was 36" plate to plate. With this axle you have to basically build a new back half to accommodate the axle.

There are some others that you can get by with just moving the spring perches and some minor trimming on the frame.
