[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 16466340, member: 196914"] I did this recently. I did the whole kit with the milled ford racing diff cover. Also did the larger bolts for the subframe, adjustable sway bar links, and Eibach rear sway bar. Along with a new Eaton True-Trac differential, ford racing 3.73 gear, solid pinion spacer, and all new diff bearings. I replaced damn near everything in the irs except the axles. Gears are setup correctly with .008 backlash. I still got the clunk. It's not terrible but it's mostly when sitting still and going into gear just before I accelerate. Rarely do I feel anything when moving. I took a look underneath and noticed my inner cups of my axles move before the shafts when turning the driveshaft. So my axles are a little worn which I think is contributing to the clunk, along with other things but I can't say for sure. Point is, some cars will have it, some won't. The FTBR IRS is so much better than stock I'm willing to live with it. I don't think it's anything to worry about anyway. I think Ford even released a tsb stating it was normal. I'm not replacing my axles till I break them so I may have more insight then. That's my $.02 [/QUOTE]
