Default IRS Question

So, did a search and had no hits..... Has anyone tried to put a cobra IRS into an early SN95 GT?

Or any suggestions..... I do have all the parts to keep that live axle in check but I want to build a road coarse car not a drag car and the IRS would go a long way to making the car handle even better.

Thanks

I just put one in a 96 GT. Just normal driving in the car has been allot better. Haven't had a chance to really take into the curves yet but from what I can tell it's a night and day difference

What are your goals for this swap?

If your wants/needs are for a comfortable DD, this will be a nice upgrade from stock. If you want to make a cornering beast, keep rear-axle stock and address the quadra-bind suspension back there.

The Cobra IRS was designed to be a direct swap for the solid-axle and many short-cuts were taken. The finest Stangs on the planet run an SRA and is the way to go if you want high performance.
