We love to hear your feedback!!
Hi Bruce,
I wanted to let you know I finally got around to installing the bushings in my
IRS. Your kit is awesome!
The tools were a life saver. They were very easy to use. The control arms move
so much smoother now. It was a very simple install. Thanks again for
offering such a great kit.

| Silverboost | Dreaded wheel hop has been finally terminated! After the car being down for 3 weeks to install the Full Tilt Boogie bushing kit I finally got everything back together yesterday. The car feels much more planted now and tighter. You definitely can feel the road more and I can hear the drive train more now, but to overcome the wheel hop has been incredible. |
| V6&V8SHO | Bruce's products are quality and his facility is top notch! |
| moot09 |
Before I installed Bruce's bushing kit I would hop all over the road during
mid to full acceleration in 1st and 2nd. It sounded HORRIBLE! After
installing the kit this dreadful feeling and sound is no more. Not only did
it completely get rid of the wheel hop it also improved the feel of the car.
Quite noticeably too. Makes me glad I made the purchase. Also both Bruce and Steve guided me through every problem I had. These guys are very patient as well. Didn't make me feel like a dumbass when id ask some simple questions. As soon as an email was sent, I received one back within the hour, usually within 20 minutes, which just shows how much they stand by this product. I HIGHLY recommend this product to any cobra owner seeking a better feel for their car. Thanks again Bruce and Steve! |
| randoo | 631rwhp, Bruce's kit, BFG 295's and H&R race springs. No hop at all. |
| FlaSeaDude |
I'm running a little over 600RWHP and have Bruce's IRS Bushing Kit installed
on my Cobra. It stopped the hop... |
| 1badblownstang | What real customer
service is (Bruce and Steve)
I have been slowly putting together my full rear set up from Bruce. Last week I ordered a few pieces and one of them was the delrin read diff support. Monday (actually Sunday night, Monday morning) I was looking over my parts list for the gear change I am having done this weekend and somehow I forgot I ordered the rear bushing so I ordered it again. I look at my email Monday afternoon and there is an e-mail from Steve saying they noticed I already ordered one and just wanted to make sure i needed another one. Of course I did not and sent him an e-mail back, saying i made a mistake. Not 20 minutes later I had the money returned to paypal and a follow up e-mail telling me they took care of it. That's service! Thanks Bruce and Steve. |

Just a quick note for anyone considering this upgrade. Do it. This is simply
how the IRS should have been shipped from the factory. The suspension
response is vastly improved, very predictable.... Launching the car hard on
Nitto Drag Radials, it plants the tires and just goes, ZERO wheelhop. I've
done some "spirited driving" late last night around a few on-ramps, and the
car felt 10x better than ever before. Previously I had the MM RED urethane kit in the car which was so-so, but it can't even hold a candle to this kit. No extra noise, vibration or anything that I can see. Kudos to a kick-ass kit! |
| Fatal Strike | I installed the kit on my car couple weeks ago, took it to the strip and cut my best 60' time so far.. car ran straighter on the slicks and felt solid. My car makes 660rwhp and I still feel confident in the stock half shafts, I believe they will see me into the 9's with the 6-speed when I drop the gears.. |
| Ray Lucca | I
just got the car back and a big shout out to Bruce [AC427], and Eric at
Impulse Eng. in Huntington Beach, Ca. I ordered the full Delrin kit, grease
fittings, 9/16 Bolts, and rear Bump-steer kit from Bruce, and it shipped and
arrived right on time to Eric's shop. I have an 03 Vert with the full length
sub-frames already installed, and the up-grades have transformed the car,
planted, firm but compliant, and the handling diff. is amazing. We also did
the following: Installed Coupe springs, 1/2 coil cut, M.M. C/C Plates, Flush and fill the Diff. and installed the B.F. Brace, 2 new Rear Nitto 555's, Redline Hood Struts, and a 4 Wheel Custom Alignment, and Rear bump steer. The good news is, so far, NO WHEEL HOP!!! The clunks are gone, the slop in the drive train is gone, and the car handles great. For you So. Cal Guys, that need a good shop, check out Eric @ Impulse Eng. Installing the kit is a big under-taking, but I can tell you, it's worth it. Both Bruce and Eric are stand up guys, and under-promised and over-delivered, that's a good way to do business. |

Bruce isn't just Bruce, he's SuperBruce!! Instead of the big Superman 'S' on his chest, its the red R with the snake through it  |
| icefly | I am new to this site but have read the entire installation procedure on Full Tilt site and all I can say is WOW. This kit looks very impressive and the instructions Bruce gives are unbelievable!! I am totally impressed and I can't wait to dive into this for my 2003 Cobra. My car has decent power but of course it suffers heavily from wheel hop. I agree with Bruce though, I do NOT want to get rid of IRS as ALL real Super cars have IRS... |

Been giving it a a couple months "testing" before I posted my impressions of
Bruce's IRS bushing kit. All I can say is the kit has to be one of the best
mods I have done to the car besides the whipple. Prior to the bushing kit, I had a very squirrelly feeling to the car, say on a 3rd gear roll full boost 20-22 psi, the whole rear-end felt like it was moving around in the cradle....never did like that feeling. I knew when this happened, it had to be the amount of rubber in the IRS. Secondly, I did struggle with wheel hop on occasion...not anymore. My car has MM coilovers (Fnt 375 / Rear 575 springs) with MM sport bilsteins and handles like it's on rails with Bruce's kit. No change in NVH. Plants the 630 rwhp perfectly AND predictably unlike before. You can feel the articulation of the suspension is greatly enhanced. Cornering is a thing of beauty. Zero noise. I only did the delrin/UHMW and aluminum bushings. Kept the stock sway bar end links and stock tie rods. Overall just wanted to give an honest opinion after a few months of driving the beast. Special thanks to Bruce and all of his outstanding advice / customer service. Lastly Bruce....I still need to return the rented tools, sorry for the delay! I will do quickly, just has skipped my mind due to a hectic schedule.  Pics: Notice the gloss back powdercoat on the subframe! |
| sassafras | Big Props to Bruce
(ac427cobra)...
...and all the work he's done with the IRS
in these cars. I recently purchased his full bushing kit/bumpsteer-upgraded
toe links/adjustable sway bar end links and got to install them two weekends
back and all I can say is wow, Ford's NVH engineers really dropped the ball
on the rear end on these cars. |
| navyht | Just got the full kit in today. All I can say is WOW what a difference. The old bushings I removed looked pretty bad and as I'm sure Bruce can back up, most of the IRS bushings were shot (by the way, the money order for more parts went out today). I checked with 3 different shops here in Hawaii to do the install and no one would even give me an estimate. I did it my self with the help of some friends from Hawaii Performance Mustangs and while it was a major PITA 5 minutes of seat time made it all worth while. The full kit is worth every penny and then some. |
| navyht | I
have an 01 Cobra with 95K miles on it and recently installed the full
bushing kit with the sway bar end links. I also had to replace all four of
the cross axis joints on the knuckle. I can't say enough about the quality
of these bushings. It's like they were machined specifically for my car as
everything was a perfect fit. I would be lying if I said it was an easy
install but it was worth it. I was expecting the ride quality to suffer some
due to the stiffer bushings but it was a huge improvement instead as my
factory bushing were completely shot. The biggest bonus of all is the wheel
hop is gone! I also have to comment on your customer service Bruce. This was
a huge project and I had a bunch of questions and you answered them all. Its
good to hear Full Tilt is official and with the quality products and great
customer service I hope you still have time for the track.
Thanks for everything Bruce |

Well I just installed my kit this weekend. Getting the IRS out and breaking
it down was very straight forward. The bushing removal tools are a MUST!
Removing all of the rubber bushings was a breeze with the removal tools (oh
and a little PB blaster made it even easier). Drilling out the old subframe
bushings made their removal a whole lot easier as well. Make sure to read
the instructions before do each part. It will make you life a whole lot
easier. The only real PITA was putting the IRS back in the car .
What a nightmare, but after a lot of prying and cussing it's back in now and
I can't wait to test it out tomorrow. When reinstalling the IRS I would
highly recommend putting in the front subframe bolts first because the holes
have to line up precisely to go in (especially when installing the upgraded
larger front bolts). The rear subframe mounts have slotted holes and an
sliding nut giving it room to move around if they don't line precisely. Not
to mention the rear bolts are easier to access. Service from Bruce and Steve
was outstanding and I received everything very fast. I ordered the kit on a
Tuesday and had it at my door that Friday. Everything in the kit was
packaged very nicely and labeled making it easy enough for a third grader to
know where everything went. I would highly recommend this kit to all cobra
owners. This kit is top notch! |
| evil04svtcobra |
Bruce, I picked up my car today from Performance Plus. The car goes straight and drives tight. a little more bumpy, but that is expected. really really like the new kit. everything works perfectly. quick shipping and very knowledgeable. The old bushings were torn, ripped, blistered, and totally pieces of ****, I cant believe how bad the stock bushings were, and my car only has 35k miles. Just really wanted to say thank you for everything Bruce. |
| Ray Lucca | I
finally had some time this week-end to drive the car after the install of
Bruce's full bushing kit, Bolts, and rear bump-steer on my 03 Vert. I also
had 1/2 coil cut coupe springs, M.M C/C Plates, flush/fill the Rear Diff.
and installed the B.F Brace, 2 new rear Nitto 555's, a 4 wheel custom
alignment with the pinion angle and rear bump-steer set, and Redline Hood
Struts. I have to give a huge shout out to Bruce [AC427], and Eric [Impulse
GT], at Impulse Engineering in Huntington Beach , Ca. I now drive a
different car...PERIOD!! Every Saturday morning I get on the freeway on a long sweeping ramp. Before 45MPH tops or I was plowing up the ramp in the gravel, yesterday over 65 MPH sticking like glue to the bottom of the elevated sweeper. An amazing difference, and the rear stayed planted and didn't get squirrelly. I got through a light last night and had a high speed sweeper the wheel was steady and solid, I didn't have to fight it like before. Last but not least NO WHEEL HOP, the car now plants and hooks up, I can actually get on it out of the hole now, I never could before. I'm at 454 RWHP and 500 Tq., maybe I need more power, especially since I can put it down??!!.....This kit is a major undertaking and if you can't do it yourself, make sure you go with a knowledgeable shop as I did. Eric's shop used to install the MM Kits, he is going to talk with Bruce about using his going forward. This mod, is the best thing I have done to the car and I wish I'd have done it first. I was lucky enough to deal with 2 stand up guys, and the results we're much better than expectation, a real rarity in business these days...... Highly Recommended!!! |

First off, your kit kicks a**! The install went perfect and was very
straight forward and almost easy. The quality of the kit was great and after
driving it around, I noticed a huge difference. The grease fittings sure
make life nice. One piece of advice to anyone attempting this. Use a
motorcycle/atv jack to remove/re-install the irs assembly if you are doing
this on jack stands. It makes life very easy and pretty much lines everything
up in one shot. I did the whole thing by myself without one bit of problem.
Thanks again Bruce and your tools will ship out tomorrow. The only casualty
was a piece of threaded rod in the tool kit that died at the hands of a
cradle bushing. If there is an extra charge, I completely understand. Thanks again, Rod |
| DennyG |
I installed a set of these bushings, along
with MM's front CA delrin bushings, on my 2001 Cobra ...The difference is
remarkable! The car turns in much more reliably and I'm able to maintain
much higher cornering speeds ... and the car is more predictable at the
limit. This is truly a transformation ... great product! |
| Ontariomystic |
Finally got to drive my 04 Cobra with Bruce's kit. I am very impressed and
happy with the ride and noise level. For those concerned about the noise
from the aluminum mounts, I can't tell the difference from stock. My exhaust
is the quiet Borla catback which is not loud either. I'm curious if guys
that experience noise can be related to the pinion angle being off. This mod
should be considered for all IRS cars. The install however is allot of work but not difficult. Be sure to use the install tools and it will be easy. Took me longer than most but I am thorough with every step. If you have an 03-04 Cobra, the pinion angle will not be exact but you should be able to get within 1-1.5 degrees which is allot better than the factory angle and appears to be quiet and no vibrations. Thanks Bruce for an excellent kit and value |
| DocB | I
would just like to thank Bruce publicly for developing, producing and
offering such a fine product. Excellent fit, finish, instructions,
packaging, and support. I just took the car out for a leisurely drive today (gentle break in) even though we are not quite finished with all the work (including The Black Pill-stay tuned). It's been a long winter and I just couldn't help myself. We installed Bruce's full bushing kit and the car definitely feels more solid in the rear. NO detectable NHV above stock so far. Awesome. I would recommend this kit. Thanks again Bruce, Bruno..... |

I
bought this kit earlier this summer. I finally got around to installing it
couple weekends ago.
First off I want to say THANKS to Bruce! It is and excellent kit, well
written and thorough directions, top notch tools (buy'em, its worth it), and
he was very quick to answer questions I had via PM's.The UCA bushings were easy to remove and install. The LCA bushings were easy to remove and install. The cradle bushings were a little bit tough, but nothing a saw-all couldn't cut through, and once that was done they came right out. The differential bushing was pretty easy also. Impressions- Its amazing the way the car feels now. It doesn't want to wander, and the rear feels even more like I have a complete car now. I thought the IRS was great with rubber, its '10 fold' better now, if that makes sense. I cant wait to get the car on an open track (and some spirited exit/on ramp runs). I still have a bit of wheel hop initially upon WOT (on the street), but nothing like it was before! As far as noise, its a little bit more noisy, but nothing the stereo cant fix.  Great bushing kit, Thanks! |
| SteedaGT |
Well I guess it's time to give a review after I've driven with the new
bushings for a few weeks now. One word, amazing! I not only felt an improvement on the autox course, but also on the drag strip. The complete bushing kit + my MM coil-overs = 0, nadda, nothing, that's ZERO wheelhop. The install was a breeze (other than my minor mishap with the stock LCA bushings...) and took about a weekend for me working alone most of the time. The bushing tools are a MUST. Don't try this without them. Taking the old stuff out is much harder than putting the new stuff in also. Bruce's stuff goes in like butter (he likes it when I say that haha). Instructions are great too! Using the pictures in this thread and the instructions sent with the kit, I questioned nothing and had no problems. I came from a stock '03 IRS with MM coil-overs to an amazing '03 IRS after adding Bruce's complete kit. I'd recommend this kit to anyone with an IRS whether the car serves autox, road course, on/off-ramp duty, or a drag racing whore. It does everything better. Thanks again Bruce!!!!! |
| Lightning&Mach1 | Well, If anyone on here is wondering, should I buy this kit or not. The answer is yes buy this product. Not only is it cheaper than MM's, it is also race proven on Bruce's badass Cobra R. Just the feel of the car around the turns is amazing. And if your not just buying it for the turns and just for drag racing then it should be you first step of stiffening it up in the rear. So far for my car it has been my best buy I feel. Thanks again Bruce I love the kit and the turns this car can handle now. haha |
| newcastle | Awesome bushing kit! good instructions. fast shipping. bruce is a great guy! I can't say enough about this purchase! thank you, bruce! you saved me allot of money over buying MM's parts. the improvement in handling is incredible. very happy... |
| KJS1820 |
Just had to add to this thread! Last night I finished my AC427COBRA Bushing
kit install! I did it all on my back in the driveway and wasn't that bad! I
drilled and sawzalled the subframe bushings and used the hydraulic press at
work to pop out the upper and lower control arm bushings (25 min job
putting it back in was fairly easy not a big deal! I have a Kenne Bell on
the car with the normal bolt ons! I took the car out and was FINALLY able to
smoke the nittos 555rs for the first time with NO wheelhop!!! The bushings
are amazing! I have no other suspension or frame mods just the bushings and
a BF brace! Noise is a little louder but not that bad! I should have done
this as the first mod! I will be welding in my subframe connectors on the
alignment rack at work when I do an alignment to make sure all is good
Thank you Bruce for all the R&D getting these bushings into production! |
| hatsharpener |
Bruce's customer service and support is second-to-none. He has helped me
through every step of the install. As mentioned earlier in the thread, don't
hesitate to contact Bruce with any questions you may have. If only all customer service stations were like his :-) |
| 724COBRA | I just had MM rear tie rod kit installed and I am very impressed. I was very happy with Bruce's kit before I got the bumpsteer adjusted and realigned. I had NO wheel hop along with my other IRS mods. Now I am even more impressed. My car is very tight and predictable. Bruce recommended getting the bumpsteer kit and it was well worth the money and definitely put the icing on the cake. Thanks again Bruce! |

Welp, I finally got my car on the road after doing an IRS swap in it with
Bruce's full delrin kit, WOWWWWW, is all I got to say about how it handles,
and its not even aligned yet. I went from MM LCA's and MM panhard bar to 03
cobra irs with Bruce's delrin kit, I love my car sooo much right now. I have huge amount of props to Bruce, guy answers every single PM I send him, 90% of the time he answers within a few hours. Answers every part of the question, always tries to help out and gives advice. He is one of the best guys I've done business with on any website forum, or even any online retailer period. The directions he gave were great, and all the bushings were very nicely packaged and labeled wonderfully, all the delrin was high quality. Thank you Bruce. |
| Bionik P | I
will say this about Bruce and his kit: Bruce is an extremely knowledgeable guy who was able to answer all of my dumb questions that I threw at him. Many times Bruce answered my questions within a couple of hours. I know there were many times where I thought to myself that Bruce was laughing on his side of the computer at some of the questions I asked, but he always came back with a professional and knowledgeable answer. As far as Bruce's kit......this is some high quality stuff! I took each piece out and each piece was perfect....not a single flaw. All of the pieces went into the IRS with no problem what so ever. I believe that with all of the suspension mods I did, to include Bruce's kit, have solved my wheel hop problems in my vert. A big thanks to Bruce and all the help you provided me!  |
| WDW MKR | Thanks again, Bruce. I've had time to get my car out and really drive it over the past few weeks. The bushings have made it a new car. |

got my kit today and it look amazing. If you think it looks good in the
picture you need it see it in person. I can't wait to get it installed. BTW dealing with Bruce has been great. He is very helpful with any questions and he did exactly what he said he would do. I couldn't be happier with the transaction. |
| ponypower |
Well I got my complete kit installed. My shop didn't completely read the
directions at first
but Bruce was right there to help us out. I can't say enough what a quality
product this is and what a great guy Bruce is. My shop was extremely
impressed with the kit and they work on Vettes for a living. They couldn't
stop talking about the quality. As for how I like it....I'd slap someone if they got another kit over this one. My car hopped like a freakin jack rabbit before and now nada.....no hop whatsoever and that is with my Khumo Supra 712s on. I got the car back Friday night and went and got it aligned and had the pinion angle adjusted (which I think still needs some fine tuning) and I took it out all day today. I also had 4.30s installed along with a Billetflow IRS girdle and FRPP IRS cross member and 03 shafts. The car spins on hard launches and on hard 2nd gear slams. No hop anywhere! I can't get over how different the car is, I wish I had started with this stuff right off the bat. On top of that, my subframe connectors and Billetflow IRS brackets will go on in a few weeks....I can't imagine what the car will be like after that. Solid axel swap......bah humbug! IRS FTMFW!!! |
| -Aj- | Just to chime in here, I took a ride in a fully IRS equipped ac427cobra delrin packaged car yesterday, and I am fully convinced it works. No wheelhop at all, only some tire spin. No suspension noise was heard either. I have been converted! |
| JPIStang | The kit is VERY nice, you won't regret it. It makes the IRS feel like a million bucks! |
| MSTMRFR |
Just received my kit....Bruce Kicks a$$ with help, and getting back with you
via e-mail responsiveness. and is very helpful when it comes to setting up
suspension...he did not try to sell me his kit, just said it needed
attention...and was not pressing to try to get me to purchase his specific
kit...and he gave me a military discount... thanks Bruce!!! |
| Matt888 |
I'm one of Bruce's latest VERY satisfied customers
His kit completely changed my car and I'm addicted to driving it like a
crack junky. It turns on a dime and accelerates like a bat outta hell (well,
not quite as fast as you damn 03/04 guys, but you get the point
). Pure sex man. Do it!!!Thanks again Bruce! Your kit has me imagining what it would be like to install on an IRS put in the rear of one of those cobra kit cars. Dear lord...  |
| WDW MKR | Just to report back on the bushings... I am very happy! The difference is noticeable with just spirited street driving. Gear noise is a little louder, but everything is actually quieter. No more loud bangs when going over bumps and dips. I look forward to testing for wheel hop. The entire suspension feels a lot more connected. |
| 724COBRA | Thanks for the kit. It made an unreal difference in my car. I had Bruce's kit along with FLSFC and BF Mount Brackets installed and it is like a different car. I have a coupe with street tires and have absolutely no wheel hop. It is so awesome to finally be able to hammer that thing without feeling like my rear end is gonna come apart. Not only did it greatly reduce the wheel hop it feels tight and handles much better as well...thanks again Bruce...well worth the money! |
| More to come!!!!! | |
Here are some posts from happy customers taken from the ModularFords.com forum......
| mmustangsrus |
whether drag racing or open track/ auto-x or even "spirited" street driving
you really should look in to this kit especially if you want the dreaded wheel hop GONE !! http://www.modularfords.com/forums/showthread.php/155898-new-mods-to-my-03-cobra |
| RoadRash | Check out this bushing kit. (sorry to link to
another site but it is the best kit out there) http://www.svtperformance.com/forums...bushing+delrin Don't use urethane .. delrin is the stuff. |
| JROC | If you want to keep the IRS, Delrin bushings
are your friend and are definitely better than poly. I have been running
Bruce's kit for almost a year and a half and honest to god I have zero
wheelhop unless I break the tires on wet pavement it might hop slightly.
FLSFC's help allot also, and so did DR's, but I have been running street
tires again for about a year and my car will just spin and spin but not hop.
The kit consist of Delrin control arm bushings, Aluminum differential
bushings and UHMW (which is a very high grade, expensive poly) subframe
bushings. I highly recommend it, and it makes everything on the car work
better. As an added bonus it cured my clunk on decel, but many say their car still has the clunk with the solid bushings. It seem like it cures the clunk in some car, and not in others. http://www.svtperformance.com/forums...d.php?t=260665 |
| 99blkcobravert | Save your money for Bruce's Delrin kit! They have a provision for grease fittings and won't squeak like urethane; also delrin has zero deflection unlike the "u" stuff. I upgraded my 99 IRS with bushings, coilovers, girdle, aluminum diff bushings, pinion snubber and toe link bars. I have zero wheel hop ever. I had some 325x45/17's on this summer and it hooks like it never has before! |
| Ray Lucca | I have an 03 Cobra Vert that had bad wheel hop, 454 RWHP-500 TQ. I installed Bruce's full Kit and Bumpsteer Kit, 1/2 coil cut Coupe springs, B.F. Diff. Brace, M.M. C/C Plates and Full Sub-frame connectors, a new R. Pair of Nitto 555's, and a good 4 wheel Bump-steer Alignment. This is the best mod I have done, by far, the the one I should have done first. It's a different car, much better, and no wheel hop ..Good luck!! |

Here are some posts from happy customers taken from the SoCalTerminators.com forum......
| JPIStang | I got AC427's whole kit. Awesome! I can't say
enough about the difference in ride/handling. He didn't have the bushing removal tools when I bought the kit. The bushing removal was the biggest pain in the ass you can imagine. Those tools will make it MUCH easier. Just keep in mind the IRS assembly weighs well over 300lbs. A tough job for one guy, but not impossible. |
| LargeOrangeFont | I've done most of it. It's not too bad.
Getting to old bushings out is the most time consuming part. It is easier
with the proper tools and/or a press. AC427's stuff is awesome and fit is second to none. |
