Default Independent Rear Suspension Conversion for S197

Maximum Motorsports shows off IRS suspension for Mustang — Autoblog

Check that out! Of course if you're building a drag car this isn't a worthwhile mod, but for corner carvers this is freaking outstanding. I've seen rumors in some other forums that it costs up to $10k to buy but I have yet to see it for sale online. Can anyone link me to a place that sells it/technical specs and details? I've been looking for something like this for a while.

Thats pretty interesting. I cant seem to find any info about it on their website. That article looks like its from awhile ago Im not sure what they ended up doing with that design. The best Ive found for rear suspension is from Griggs although its not an IRS system.
