IRS swap for my 97

Very nice, I put an 03 IRS in my 92 Notch and I highly recommend doing at a minimum ALL the bushings while it's out. I did Prothane Poly bushings everywhere and it really helps with the wheel hop without adding too much NVH.
I’m going to replace them all maybe with delrin
If it's in the budget go for it, I did it like 10 years ago and the cost was 10x for Delrin and I just wanted to drive the damn thing.
On same route, gonna swap it on my 98
Stay tuned, on it way for powder coating.
Good luck to you man!

What are you guys paying for these IRS's?
Seems like even the junk 03/04 units are a lot of money these days.

Fun stuff. Put a 30k-mile ‘04 assembly in my ‘96. Anxious to see how it handles as I’ve never driven an IRS swapped SN95. Paid $1700 with freight almost 2 years ago. I think the FTBR order with rotors, tie rods, diff cover, bushings and all was more than the assembly.

I damn near stole mine on Facebook marketplace. It was $500
I got mine back in 2012 or 2013 for $500 complete for an 04 unit. They are closer to $2k I think now.
Ur gonna be happy with it I believe. There's a noticeable difference between my 98 Cobra and 03 Cobra on the back country roads.
Guys did y’all reuse the stock lines or did you use the irs cars brake lines?
I used the Maximum Motorsports braided lines and brackets, and made my own hard lines running from m10x1.0 T fitting (red in pic) to them.

IRS install is completely worth it over a solid axle if you don't plan to track the car a lot at the strip.
