independent rear suspension, so instead of having a full diff housing running from wheel to wheel like older cars, it will have a diff centre housing, and cv shafts coming out going to the wheels if its irs.being series one it will probably be a full diff and not irs. if its not irs the back suspension wont be the same as the ba falcon

Front is close enough to be used, rear will not even come close.

just the shocks and springs, the lower arms will fit but will need a diff sway bar

even if the rear was irs it is diff to the ba

so no
