Yeahloh95 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 you will need your flange off your rear as the cobra uses the bigger bolt pattern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted September 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Ok so just swap them out? Hell yeah!!!! Thanks manSent from a Bionic powerhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01yellercobra Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) 99/01 IRS uses the same size pinion flange as the SRA's. The 03/04's use the bigger flange. Your SRA drive shaft might need to be shortened about an inch.Misspelling brought to you by Tapatalk Edited October 1, 2012 by 01yellercobra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Ok ill figure it out when I put it in thanks for the heads up though guysSent from a Bionic powerhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reivaxtorres Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 The driveshaft shouldn't need to be shortened, but it might need a bit of persuasion to get it on. A shortened shaft would make life easier tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Make sure you get the cables for the ABS sensors too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted October 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 What if I delete the abs? I don't have abs on my carSent from a Bionic powerhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01yellercobra Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 You can just unscrew the sensors from the center section. Don't throw them away though. I've heard Ford wants an arm and a leg for them now.FWIW, I ran a foxbody aluminum driveshaft when I had the 3650 in the car. It was a tight fit. In order to get it in I had to wiggle the pinion flange on the driveshaft around the pinion nut on the rear end. If the SN95 drive shaft is any longer then the foxbody drive shaft it'll have to be shortened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 With the cobra irs can I use my current sra springs and shocks?Sent from a Bionic powerhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01yellercobra Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Springs are completely different. I have a set of rears if you need them. The shocks will work, but IRS shocks and SRA are valved differently. So I would plan on new shocks at some point.Misspelling brought to you by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 I bought it with springs but mine are lowered so I didn't know if I could im also getting the shocks too so ill just use it all the set up only has a few thousand miles on itSent from a Bionic powerhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01yellercobra Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 If you're getting stock springs just trim them to the height you want. You might want to look on svtperformance. Sometimes rear lowering springs pop up from guys going SRA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kucklehead Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Ok how easy and reliable are cut springs?Sent from a Bionic powerhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01yellercobra Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Easy as long as you have the right tools. I used an angle grinder with a cut off wheel. As for reliability, I've had the same cut springs under my car for over 6 years. Misspelling brought to you by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeahloh95 Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 i just cut the ones i put in my svo and i think the shocks are different because of the way the bolt goes thru i used the irs ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRA shocks will not work nor will SRA springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
