IRS Rear Cobra - Rear Wheels Have Free Play

[Horus Works]

I've got some free play in my rear wheels, when I push on them from side to side.
Looking closely I can see that my cross axis joints are shot!

Any tips for swapping these out at home?

Looks like it's time for some surgery

Thanks boys, have found the fulltiltboogie version of this kit!
I was lucky to find one here locally that someone wasn't using.

I'll make a step by step guide when I replace mine this weekend...

I was going to recommend full tilt boogie. It doesn’t get any better than what they offer. Keep us posted

That's one side done... not a difficult job actually

All done, and not a difficult job at all... I can feel the difference in corner exit.
A lot less knocking from the suspension now as well. BUT I will need other bits replaced back there for sure.



Here's the steps I took recorded in a video if anyone needs help:

Now for the rest of the IRS...
