[QUOTE="SuperSonic, post: 409939, member: 8280"] I took the rear end out to check it, clean it out and put some Redline fluid in it. I've been working on straight axle Mustangs for some time now so the IRS was new to me. Removing the half shafts is not bad at all. I used the Ford repair manual and it was pretty clear on the procedure. The only tips I can think of are to have the proper tool to remove the half shaft from the pumpkin (you have to pry them out slightly because of a spring clip on the axle) and it's easy to damage the abs gear and axle seals in that process, and to mark the upper bolt/cam on the top a-arm attachment point because that is how the camber is set on the rear wheels, then when you put it back together, you can place it at the same point upon assembly. It's really not the difficult to do, and now that I know what to do, I could replace one in about 45 min. to an hour taking my time. [/QUOTE]
