I'm considering swapping out my '01 IRS for a solid axle. I need to know where I can purchase a complete or almost complete rearend for my car. I would like to get a '99 or up and if possible a mach-1 rearend. Any help would be appreciated.

Most people who want to do this just find a GT owner who is willing to trade rear ends.

Thanks guys. I live in Louisiana and I'm not sure if I want to get rid of my IRS, but just want to buy a rear-end. As for the Mach-1 rear-end it has the same sise brakes as my cobra.
