I'll admit that I have NOT done a complete inventory of all the parts in the boxes uet, but I would think that the IRS would be a fairly substantial piece...

I ordered my kit from FFR with the IRS.

From what I can SEE...it looks like it is pre-installed and welded...does this make sense?

I'll try to take some pics of the rear tomorrow before I do anything.

The IRS Cage comes pre-welded to the frame. I know you have some of the parts included in your kit, but I can't remember exactly what (Control Arms and Half Shafts???)

That is sort of what I figured...the are a number of attachment points, but it does not look like a solid axle would mount up in there, just control arms...

Will still take the pic anyways.

:cool:

Neill, check these pics. I took these during John Phillips' build. You should be able to make out the IRS parts that should have come separate.

Neil,

I have the same kit. You should get the upper and lower control arms, a set of coil over shocks, A set of half shafts w/CV boots and not very good instructions in the back of the manual. Everything else is welded in at the factory. FWIW I found I needed to grind a little half moon on the lower control arms to let the shock nut/bolt turn.
