Replacing rear axle?

It's been several years since my '90 16V went away, and I am thinking about rejoining the Saab family at last. I found a '92 for sale at an attractive price, but it's got a bent rear axle due, according to the owner, to a mishap when the car was pulled out after an off-road excursion.
I have not driven the car yet to see what other suspension issues there may be, but wondered if anyone here has ever replaced a rear axle on a C900? If I decide to purchase, I will be doing the work myself. I have done rear axle swaps on FWD cars before (A1 VW GTI, to be specific) but wanted to know if there are any tips, special tools or other caveats to be aware of when dealing with a job like this on the C900. Thanks for any advice!
