I do notice a vibration difference depending on the fuel tank levels. It appears less when the tank is half full than full. The rotation pulsing can still be felt at any level. I wonder if shielding the tanks or spraying them with a thick undercoating would help.
Besides loosening the 4 IRS sub frame bolts, does anyone know the correct procedure for aligning the IRS? Are special instruments or tools needed. The entire assembly is very heavy and not easy to manipulate.
To install this on the stock driveshaft one end need to be disassembled, about a 3 hour labor charge with no guarantee it will work. So I never installed it.
The Dealer replaced my differential and it reduced the vibration to a tolerable level. But now about 10,000 miles later it backed in full bloom. I'm thinking maybe something is wearing the carrier bearing or its a bad design.
Has anyone thought of trying the STEEDA IRS alignment bushing kit. Maybe these will align the IRS and driveshaft thereby correcting all the drive line angles.
The alignment bushing did nothing for me. You can do a quick check of the IRS alignment by checking if the IRS frame holes line up with the chassis holes, use a small dowel. These holes are located in the muffler area. There are also other measurements that can be done.
As a owner owners of one of these defective vibrating mustangs I commend the enduring efforts put forth by everyone who is trying to fix this major problem. However, we should not have to be doing this and it's time for Ford to step in and fix their screw up for everyone with a real solution...
