[QUOTE="Dingleweed, post: 2748053, member: 31218"] So, eventually I would like to get 4.30 gears and some drag radials for the track. I know that the halfshafts of 1999 Cobras are the weak point, and are prone to snapping with aggressive gears, sticky tires, and aggressive launching and shifting. Having my car towed home from the track is not a pleasant thought. :bash: My ideal setup would be to have 4.30 gears and 03/04 Cobra halfshafts. To use the 03/04 halfshafts I know that I need to have a 31 spline differential. So here are the questions: 1. If I replace just the differential carrier, are all Ford differentials the same? Is a differential carrier for an IRS different than for a solid rear? 2. If I swap out the whole pumpkin, is the whole pumkin from a 01, 03/04 a direct swap into my car? 3. If I get the 31 spline differential/pumpkin, are the 03/04 halfshafts a direct swap? 4. Any other parts or modifications needed, or pitfalls to encounter other than swapping the pumkin and the halfshafts? Thanks for your time and info ;-) [/QUOTE]
