if your sedan is live axle then swaping centers over shouldn't be a problem.

im not 100% sure what live axle is, live axle is opposite to IRS isnt it? in that case im pretty sure it is live axle but if someone could explain the difference that would be great

have a look under the back end. if it looks like ==0== it is live axle, if it has the diff centre mounted onto the car and arms out to the wheels it is irs
