It looks like the car is on jack stands, how hard was it to do that way?

I've done it this same way on past Mustangs I've had - It's easy.
Just put a floor jack under the IRS, remove all the bolts holding it in and lower the jack.

I’m about to do all the bushings in my 01 too which is why I asked, but I don’t have subframe connectors though.

hit a particular mileage this morning...
I installed an O/R Mac Prochamber to pair up with my Bassani Exhaust, possibly my favorite exhaust set up for these cobras.
How was the fit? I love the prochamber sound but scared of all the joints and fitment.

The fit was excellent, the prochamber sits higher up than I initially expected. The only problem I ran into, although common on these cars, is getting the nuts to come off the stud going into the manifold. Being a 14 year old car w/ 26,000 miles, it was stuck on there pretty good. None the less, it is the best sound setup to me personally, I love it.
Made a little more progress on the T56 Magnum swap:
Strange chromoly slip yoke, pinion yoke and HD U-joints arrived! If I have to shorten the driveshaft anyways I might as well get rid of the weak stock flange yoke!
Countersunk the bolts in the shifter for trans tunnel clearance. I planned to do the same for the forward mounting cover but the bolts were a different thread and I didn't feel like driving back to the fastener store so I just ground them down. I also had to massage the trans tunnel a bit just forward of the shifter hole.
Put a 7/8" frost plug in the mechanical speedometer hole.
Clutch arm and TOB installed. Tremec has revised the front area of the trans as the arm fits perfect. You no longer have to grind the trans and clutch arm for clearance and the stock pivot stud looks like it will work just fine.
Nothing like taking a cut-off wheel to your brand new $4500 trans!
I had to cut these 2 pointy bits off and grind down a tab for clearance.
Tried to get it bolted up today but no joy, I think the clutch alignment is off. I'll re-align it and try again tomorrow.

That's not a problem. IRS (and trans) work is very do-able on garage floor/jackstands. Best of luck with it.
Just finished up installing a Corbeau Harness Bar, 2 Corbeau FX1’s, 2 Corbeau 5 point harnesses, a front/rear BlackVue dashcam setup, and a new shift knob.
Installed a Kenwood head unit and kicker hideaway sub and amp

How well does it perform? And if you don’t mind me asking how much was it?

Performs good. I have the same one in my lightning. They are usually 300. I got this one and one for my marauder for 200 on black Friday
