I just replaced my stock rear axle in my 2003 GT with a new one. The origional one had 4782 miles on it when I pulled it out yesterday, Thursday the 22nd of July. It would make a nice swap for a Cobra owner who wants to get rid of their IRS. The only things I had to swap over to the new one were the brakes,control arms Ect. Internals are all there. I'm located in Shelby Twp./Utica Mi. About 25 miles N. of Detroit. If anyone is interested you can either e-mail, PM me, or call me on my cell phone at (586)855-0647 and we'll talk $ and shipping/meeting. Thanks GT JAY.

I just went back to Yahoo and checked. For some reason, your's came through to me, but my reply to you didn't. I'm just leaving work right now, so if you want to call me on my cell phone sometime in the next hour that's fine. If I don't hear from you, call me tomorrow sometime after 11am. I'll be out for a ride in the 'Stang for a bit to do a little hunting.

Was great meeting ya GT Jay.

Havn't installed it yet, just wanted to post so that everyone can read that I highly recommend trusting this guy if he ever has anything else for sale. Axle was exactly was described and I'll be sure to keep everyone updated on how it turns out, but so far definetly someone to deal with.

Got the 8.8 Installed last Saturday and everything is running great. We even cracked it open to check out the gears and the gears were in great shape. Thanks again man.

Glad to hear everything went well. Like I told you, it only had 4,782 miles on it when I swapped the new one in. Enjoy.

P.S. Do me a favor and go to my trader rating and give me a +1, that way people will see that I am reliable if I have anything else to sell or trade. Thanks Bro!

Aw come on, it couldn't have been that bad!

Wait a minute, I did mine at my buddy's shop with the car up on a hoist with a jack to raise and lower the rear axle. That saved big time on the arms and back.
