    IRS center section In but I have a question....

    So I finally wedged it up there and bolted it down, but when you look at it with the eye it looks way off center on the driveshaft end. IMG_2972.jpgIMG_2975.jpg
    Any Ideas, did anyone else have this?

    I'm going to assume the 33 is the same as the Roadster. If so, normal. The entire driveline (engine, trans, driveshaft, diff) is offset to the passenger side. I don't know the exact amount, but in the 1 to 1-1/2 inch range. DD's are typically designed the same way.

    Not 1932, but the Ford part number for the 2015-16 IRS differential vent tube is FR3Z-4A058-A. About a $15 part.

    You will need the fitting that goes into the differential, ford has them as two parts.
