IRS slop

[chet3310]

How the heck do you tighten the slop up? Can't really feel it after 45 but 2nd 3rd gear at cruising speed it blows. I know the IRS is known for this but is there anyway to straighten it out?

Mine feels a little sloppy. I will have Han look at it this Thursday but it seems a little sloppy. When you get on and off the throttle. It's probably just me but I have read a lot of people complaining of it and was wondering if there's an easy solution.

It's not horrible, just enough to notice. I love the car and that is the ONE and only negative I can think of. And for some reason I hear a whining noise coming from the engine but I was told that is normal. :lmao:

Yeah, the drive line lash or "runout" is annoying.
In 6th gear at 60 mph, try getting on and off the gas slightly. It just bangs back and forth.

Eh, what can you do? It ain't a Lexus.

Afterthought rear end. This car's were made for solid axles. Go nuts at maximum motorsports to fix.

Research Bruce's kit from SVTP, AC427cobra or something like that.

I have that kit installed, I still have a clunk once power is delivered through 1-3.
