crossmember and driveshaft are fine, but unless you've gone aftermarket you won't have a torque arm mount without buying/building a bracket for it.
- I have heard of some poeple claiming to have to modify the crossmember, but it shouldn't be different....

As I asked in a post I made this morning, what length tailshaft is needed to keep the existing driveshaft?

you need the 9 inch tail stock if you go with a TH350 in order to keep the existing driveshaft.
