Selling my IRS in Michigan.... Any solid stangs want to trade?

[Stang2WRX]

Hey guys,

Not many of you know me yet, but I hope to meet most of you this summer when I'm working at Ford.

I get out of school May 13th, and I start at Ford as a Powertrain Engineer May 23rd...

Anyway, I just got done getting my car ready power wise, I hope to swap out my IRS and get a cage while im in dearborn for the summer.

Can you guys help set me up with somebody who wants to trade?

I'm going to start searching for a lift I can use for the day up there....

You are coming to drive the bumpiest roads in the nation my friend. Maybe a ride/drive in a Level 5 IRS car will purge these thoughts. :nonono:

I would love to, but level 5 halfshatfs, and an IRS build is way more $ out of pocket then selling the IRS and building up a solid rear.

You don't need level 5 shafts to make the car stop hopping.

Stock bars last longer with hop reduced.

The rest of the buildup is under a $K if you stay stock toelink bars.

But you know all this shit, not trying to preach, sure you have seen all my blather anyway.

I know its expensive man, my experience in doing what you are considering doing makes me believe it to be worth it.

Good luck with the solid if you do decide to go that way.

Thanks, only time will tell...

As for not needing level 5's, I am at 560 ft-lb TQ right now, 592 HP (STP)

so... I know slicks aren't happening on the stock halfshafts

Hey Postban,

Would it be worth it swapping this dude out? I've been lamenting the live rear axle in my emasculated Cobra since I "procured" it.

BTW, Stang2WRX, I've got an 8.8", 3.73 Eaton Posi that hooks like there's no tomorrow...I'm just a purist, ya know? Oh yea, and I'm in Michigan A LOT so location is not an issue.

Nice... you bought postban's old car right? or did you buy somebody elses...

I will be working at ford, but helping doug out when I can (free labor is always welcomed I guess).

I'll be around and will be a big part of MCT if possible when im there.

I'd love to chat more about this possible trade, I want to be on slicks by fall.
