Sure any axle from a 99-04 will bolt right up with the wheels you are currently using. Traction control has nothing to do with the axle housing. ABS will be fine but you have to get a set of ABS sensors.

With that being said, the 28 spline axles and Ford diff are going to live a short life behind a Cobra motor if you plan to beat on the car.

any of the 99-04s but you'll need a better diff, axles, cover, etc etc

any stock rear you throw in will probably break way before your irs will.. you have to build that solid up

Wow a Bullitt with IRS would be pretty cool! A cobra without IRS is of course not cool and not sellable. Think long and hard before you chop up your Cobra.

ya, wait a minute. lots of people go to solids for drag racin. no choppin involved either. it is a direct swap with a few changes here an there. can go back just as easy.
