1971 front end conversion

I have decided to fit a '94 - '95 Lincoln IRS into the rear of my truck. That is IF I can find one in Oz.

O.K., now the front.......?? I've heard Series 3 Jag.
In Australia the common f/end conversion is Falcon EL [1996 -1998].

Anyone with any experience converting the front end?

I don't know about where you are located but here in the US the MN12 IRS found under the Lincoln ran from '89-'97. If the same it at least gives you a wider range to search for.

Not sure if it is the same Jag IFS but here is a '69 that is going through a Jag IFS swap.
