To all,

Speaking of broken bolts, I have had my Cobra on Jack Stands for a few days and found several things broken.

1. My tranny mount was broke, it was weak at best from parts store. installed energy suspension in place of broken one.
2. The rear clevis connection on my IRS was snapped and its a 12mm grade 8 bolt, thats the rear link on a 8.8 Ford IRS you have to feel for it and work by briall to install new one.

All superformance owns should check that clevis bolt in the back of the Differential, could cause damage if not detected.

Yes a bolt hunt every so offten could prevent disaster, I have checked every nut and bolt now and glad i did.
