Hey guys,
I'm looking at purchasing an 03 at the end of this month that has little to no suspension or drive-train mods and putting about 615/550. I've been doing my research and it looks like the stock input shafts on the 03's fails relatively easy after some decent launches. I've also heard some horror stories of guys ripping their drive shafts up pretty bad from the excessive torque.
I've been making a shopping list on Lethal Performance and this is what I've come up with.
Liberty Gear 26 Spline Input Shaft for T-56
Driveshaft Shop 03-04 Cobra 3-1/2" 900 hp Aluminm Driveshaft
BilletFlow 99-04 Cobra IRS Brace
I'm trying to keep it under 1,500 so the wife doesn't get too mad (Mainly due to the fact I'm buying the car with cash outright, hah). Right now I'm right under 1,200, and hopefully if I can catch a deal or two on Lethal I can get it down a little lower.
Is this a good combination to extend the life of the drivetrain? What are some other smart buys to pick up for the drivetrain/suspension? Halfshafts are out of my price range right now, atleast the ones on Lethal are.
Thanks guys
