    no vr/vs utes came out IRS only vu onwards.. as you cant fit IRS to a non IRS sedan with out major modifications i dont see how it would be possible to fit IRS to a ute

    Everything is possible. Straight bolt up = NO way. You just scored $20.


    Just to give an idea, the whole floorpan would have to be cutaway and a new one fabricated to suit.

    The op owns a VS ute, and this thread is in the VR - VS Holden Commodore (1993 - 1997) section. Its clear what models he's talking about

    Also just realised, ALL VTs are IRS equipped, which is why your diff fit no worries. IRS - Live axel = no go without alot of money.

    The ute floor pan is a lot different from the sedan as well, so it would need a lot of work to make IRS out of a sedan fit.
