Hello, I was curious If anyone has done a stock height irs swap in a split bus. I have done 2 irs swaps in Splits but both were lowered. I really like the irs swap. Cheaper, easier and more reliable then the rgbs. I imagine cv axle binding is the issue? I plan to run 930 cvs and cv spacers. Not sure if that will be enough. Looking for any in site before I get in deep. I have a type E kit and I have used one before with great success.

What’s the axle angle when it’s on the ground? A picture would be fine too. I’m interested in doing this.

Check out my pictures. It’s not an easy bolt on affair. Some welding and machining work needs to be done. Cool
