You could fit the parts on the chassis but the new IRS is not a single cage that retrofits like the old one. There is no easy way for us to give an update package without having a large complex tool to locate the parts during the install.

Yes, same reason for the 33. The parts would weld up to the chassis but be very difficult to locate them, particularly on a finished car. Also there are some tabs that we leave off that mount the solid axle but would be in the way of an IRS.
