Has anyone replaced the IRS on a C3 for a Ford 9" axle? or know of a thread covering such a Mod? Thanks, Nick:rolleyes:
 
IF you are talking of a whole axle from flange to flange, sure, done alot for drag purposes only.....

but if you talking machine work on a 9" carrier/housing assy to fit up into a shark stockish position, I would say NO, and not worth the bother without fitting HUGE CV joints and more solid other stuff also, most guys choose to loose the IRS....with it's obvious implications....:(
 
Yes, I am looking at fitting a complete axle assembly!:bonkers:
Cheers
 
There maybe a complete kit out for that stuff, years ago a hotrod fab shop I was unfortunately involved with did about 2-3 sharks that way for Gainsville action....

I THINK there maybe kits for doing the suspension anyway...but the rear tub, I dunno, we/they always did the whole thing....sheetmetal too...
but it's been over a decade already, and I forget a lot....
