Jag IRS
Hello All, I am currently saving to build a ERA 289fia, I am also keep a watch for parts that I may need. I have come accross a 1987 xj6 IRS, it is still in the car. My question is what should I salvage? I will be going with the ERA design IRS. Also how would I go about determing the gearing and if it has posi, any place to look for markings or numbers? thanks Jerry

Give me your email and i can send you a file with info on how to identify jag rears. The diff cover sometimes has a tag at one of the bolts with the ratio on it.

If you are intent upon using the ERA outboard rear, you will need the center section and, I believe, the stub axles.
The 87XJ6 is probably an open rear, ie; non-posi. My advice is to give ERA a call and talk to Doug. My practice has been to give them the entire rear, from flange to flange, brakes included, even when I am getting the ERA rear, inasmuch as they can use the other parts in rebuilds of other rears. I would otherwise be throwing the left over bits on the scrap pile at the recycling center. Jim |

Jerry et al,
Here's an article about the Jag rear in all its variations that I found very helpful some years back: http://www.firstcoastcobraclub.com/v....php?f=8&t=167 Alas, CWI is no more but the info is still viewable from my web site. Enjoy, Tom |
Are you planning to get the complete rear from E.R.A., if so you need nothing from the used rear. If you are getting the kit there is a small list of what you get and need to supply on their web site under options.
