Sam1647545489 Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 I am looking for a ford IRS 8.8 center section from a cobra, Mark viii, v8 thunderbird, or a explorer. Has to be IRS center section. Axles are a plus. If anyone knows where I can find one or has one or knows if a junk yard has one let me know.

99BlownYellowGT Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 There's gotta be someone out there who did a solid swap on their cobra. You check out svtp yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsey Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Look on corral, I have read the explorer rears are 31 spline and that seems to be the budget racer go-to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdk 4219 Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 You probably need local so the shipping doesn't kill you. But who knows I heard concrete dudes make all the paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Bastard Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Explorer 8.8 needs shortened on one side and the install kit is $2500-3000 iirc. The 8.8 is prolly the best way to go for a serious drag racer, but the irs is easier to install and could prolly be done a little cheaper if you get the right deals.

coltboostin Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Steel is stronger Sam. And there is a set of axles for the FC/88 on NoRotors right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
