In IRS the diff is mounted to a crossmember that is mounted more solidly to the vehicle whereas a live axle tends to absorb driveline movement, and not transfering noise into the vehicle. Try Ford to make sure that diff backlash is not out of spec, if it's ok unfortunatly they will call it normal. Andrew
