So I broke my drive shaft and broke my diff cover, now I am faced with the dilema to either go SRA or (re)build the IRS...
Few things I need to know right off is the following
1. IF I switch to a SRA would one out of a 2000-2004 GT be better then one out of an 03/04 Mach?
2. I need a Posi unit, or "traction lok" as ford refers to it, both tires spinning simotaniously and receiving equal power, correct me if I am wrong but didn't the 2000-2004 GT's come with limited slip? which is NOT the same thing? My understanding is limited slip is a "one tire fire" that slips the other wheel in and out of power to get traction....similar to the posi, yet different.
3. Do I keep my same lowering springs and other suspension parts? what needs to be changed?
4. What other major components need to be changed? say I get my hands on a 03/04 Mach rear end, what needs to be done to actually make this work?
5. Is there an indepth guide, or any guide for that matter on doing this swap on here or any other forums?
6. Is it the 03/04 cobra driveshaft? or the driveshaft from a mach/GT?
7.new sway bar?
8. Is it really better to swap to SRA or to just repair the IRS, slam, brace, and add some bushings?
9. What are the major pros and cons of this operation?
If there is anything I missed or something that comes to mind, toss it on in here :rockon:
