No....the only same mounting point is where the lower trailing arms go.
Hope these pics help out.

yer but its extra weight over the rearend = traction
im fitting up IRS to my EL in the new year
the only draw back is you would need to get them rear mount brackets off a wreck as you cant buy the mounts from ford , they only come with a complete chassis rail
