Hi Paul. I'd be glad to look at your PDF of it. I would as Bob suggest put it right way up. I would also if you could get the body on and get the wheel/tire combo you're going to use and get that in place, at ride height. Then take some measurements relative to your frame where the wheel needs to be. If you can bolt the wheels to the rear end and fit it in there even better. Hot rods are built around the wheels and tires. Now get your body off and start ciphering where you're going to have to reach out to for the mounts. It looks like the diff hanging plate could go between the 1 x 2"? tubes and the four bar links may be able to go to your radius rod links although it looks like the lower may need extending forward and the upper extending back. If that doesn't look feasible you might have to go to inside or outside of the 2x4"? outside rails. Looks like a fun project and nice hardware. You'll like an IRS ride in one of these things.
