Sedan or wagon? Wagons, I believe, never had IRS. If they did, it was near the end of the run. Non-IRS cars have a solid axle like every axle you've ever seen. IRS has a totally different set up.

Yes, of the front...

I believe there was one IRS 940, the 91 940 SE, which was more or less an extension of the 760 line. Other than that, all 740/940's are live rear axle.
If you look underneath, there is one hella big thingie that runs from just behind one wheel, to a big sorta egg shaped thing in the middle,and then to the other side. And it's pretty clearly all one piece that's not going to bend or flex in the middle.
