Hey John, I agree. The frame design is totally different between the two rear ends. Retro fitting is not the answer. I do like the beefy frame that LSC has and the Ford 9", it's almost bullet proof. With all the rotating mass of a IRS can be a pain. It won't hold up to the hard launching abuse that I would give it. For road racing, the IRS is the way to go.
