[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 12210321, member: 6247"] Absolutely. If you have OEM rubber bushings, everything in your IRS is doing the 'Squiggly Squid' as you described. Your differential housing is flopping in your suframe like a Crappie out of water. This is what broke your cover. Don't expect a rear cover brace to perform miracles. For many years, people relied on the rear cover brace as a solution to rear cover breakage and it actually [B]DID[/B] help. But it's not the cure all. We now have a 'sure fire' cure all with the reinforced Ford Racing rear diff cover. Too bad for you. :( You do know that you actually downgraded the suspension on your car. That is unless you're competing for a National Drag Racing Championship in some sort of drag racing series, then I would approve. However, I highly doubt that is your case. Hopefully you realize that 98% of Cobra owners actually drive their cars 99% of the time on the street and an IRS is a MUCH better choice. :thumbsup::coolman::beer: Good Year F1's are the 'axis of evil' when it comes to wheel hop!! :cryying: FWIW :thumbsup::coolman::beer: [/QUOTE]
