How fast can you do an IRS cobra diff cover r&r?<br /><br /> I have totally overhauled the IRS in my car and I can say that 5 hours is a fair time. <br /> remember that the brakes, axels, knuckles, IRS pumkin support braces all have to come off before you can even touch the cover. Once you get to the cover, you have to clean off the old sealant and then you can re seal it. Once you are done with that, you have to put the IRS all back together and add gear oil. It's quite a job to do and charging $500 worth of labor to do it is a fair price.<br /> <br /> <small>[ 2013-07-11, 04:40 PM: Message edited by: cobraracer46 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>SIC9250</b> <br /><small>Member # 8216</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2013,6,11,16,50,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Lol then your slow and a rip off if that's the case....OP bring me your car and time me on a diff cover re seal and ill post a thread showing cobra racer he's a joke..anyone who would pay $500 for a diff re seal on a IRS is a fool and I hope they got deep pockets to spend foolish money.... <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>cobraracer46</b> <br /><small>Member # 1142</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2013,6,11,16,55,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by SIC9250:<br /><strong> Lol then your slow and a rip off if that's the case....OP bring me your car and time me on a diff cover re seal and ill post a thread showing cobra racer he's a joke..anyone who would pay $500 for a diff re seal on a IRS is a fool and I hope they got deep pockets to spend foolish money.... </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I'm curious, how long would it take you to do an IRS cover reseal? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>1RaReSnAkE</b> <br /><small>Member # 7951</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2013,6,11,16,59,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by SIC9250:<br /><strong> Lol then your slow and a rip off if that's the case....OP bring me your car and time me on a diff cover re seal and ill post a thread showing cobra racer he's a joke..anyone who would pay $500 for a diff re seal on a IRS is a fool and I hope they got deep pockets to spend foolish money.... </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">When, where, and what time?
