Is there anybody on this forum who installed IRS in their fox? Is anyone interested in installing one on theirs?
I think the housing is an 8.8.. Just get the heavy axles like you said...Racinjason81 said:the housings rarely brake and you can get halfshafts that are rated to 800

the vette's IRS was built right. the stang's IRS was an after thought and was made to be interchangeable with the solid rear axle assembly so ford compromised alot with it.Racinjason81 said:thanks glad you like it fastback71.
not many roads are even in the real world.
I dont understand why they work that well at the dragstrip.Ive seen some
fast vettes at the strip hookin pretty well with irs.
Yeah the Vette has had IRS for how many years? Lots.. Prob one of the reasons it works so well.. Years and years of improvements..TENGRAM said:the vette's IRS was built right. the stang's IRS was an after thought and was made to be interchangeable with the solid rear axle assembly so ford compromised alot with it.Racinjason81 said:thanks glad you like it fastback71.
