[QUOTE="Azure Mach1, post: 2701698, member: 7499"] It appears the 03 IRS is no match a Mach 1 either as I exploded the rear cover last night. I down shifted from 4th to 2nd at about 40 mph hitting the gas hard to pass a car and boom! The only thing I can figure is that the cover must have been stressed by the owner of the Cobra it came out of. I know the previous owner like to drag race at the track quite often and that is why we swapped rears. I was less than a mile from home so hopfully the gears will be fine. I don't drive the car often and wanted to feel its accelleration. :bash: The dealer discounted the a new cover for me at $54. Their cost is about $44 and a Steeda IRS brace cost me $129 + shipping. The aggravation of changing it bothers me more than the cost. I guess I'll see if I can change it without removing the axles.
