I think you can, but it only has two bolts, weaker case, that kinda thing.  I think they tend to break easier and they don;t distribut the load on the frame as well, but I could be wrong...
IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
