For all crew with IRS braces installed, let me know if I am off base here...

I think the Steeda IRS braces fixed the following:

I am well aware and also affected by the dreaded driveline vibes between 40-60 mph in top gear.

Also, when slowly disengaging my clutch at extremely low rpms at a roll. It almost feels like clutch chatter and seems to be worst after warmed up. I was theorizing that it was a harmonic developing throughout the driveline in those cases. Chatter, in my experience, from misalignment and contamination seems to be more consistent when taking off from a stop/roll.

Anyway, after installing the IRS braces last weekend, I would say both symptoms have diminished almost completely now that the rear subframe is more tied in. Since I am extremely conscience of it, I feel like I detect each only slightly, but more what I would consider normal for the car.

Has anyone encountered similar behaviors? before and after the IRS braces?

Didn't fix that issue for me, but does keep the rear end in check & way more planted.
