    Upgraded IRS half shafts???

    The 03 shafts are a direct bolt in to the 01 IRS, but not the 99. The 03 are 31 spline, and the 01 are 31 spline. The 99s, however, are 28 spline, and will not work with the 03 shafts unless you swap the side gears. There is no difference in the diameter of the inner stub shaft that goes into...

    Upgraded IRS half shafts???

    Ford parts network has the 03 shafts for less than 300 each...they're pretty good. These are a direct bolt in to the 01 cobra differential, but not the 99 since the side gears are different.

My vibe sounded like "static" above 6k RPM, but it went away (mostly) after I replaced teh clutch and t/o bearing. He (blown4.6Cobra) had to put the...

    01 cobra rearend clunk or tranny?

    Most of the noise is the slack in the planetary gears in the traction lok. Some of it is transmission. No, it doesn't hurt anything, but it is annoying as feck. You might check your driveshaft bolts and make sure they haven't loosened up. I did a nice hard shift one night, had increased...
