	Mini Axle Assembly - Partstrain.com
		Typically, axles are categorized as live axle or dead axle.
		This means that the live axle sends out the energy while the dead axle provides support to the wheel assembly and the other part of your car.
		When the live axle is mounted in the front it is often designed to steer.

	Axles
		A live axle is one that supports part of the weight of a vehicle and drives the wheels connected to it.
		Usually, the front axle of a passenger car is a dead axle and the rear axle is a live axle.
		The axle housing, instead of the shafts, carries the weight of the vehicle because the wheels are supported by bearings on the outer ends of the housing.

	Technical Mysteries Unraveled
		A live axle is possibly the simplest and crudest way possible to connect two wheels to a body.
		Compared to the modern independent suspension, a live axle has the entire differential assembly, protective casing and all final driveshafts as unsprung masses whilst the main driveshaft is partially sprung.
		The use of live axles and leaf springs can be traced back to at least 50 years ago, Yet strangely the use of coil springs can be found in railroad cars dating back to the 19th century.

	Live axle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A live axle is a type of beam axle suspension system that uses the driveshafts that transmit power to the wheels to connect the wheels laterally so that they move together as a unit.
		A live axle consists of a central differential mated to tubes containing the driveshafts that connect the differential to the driven wheels.
		Some live axles use trailing arms, semi-trailing arms, Panhard rod, and/or Watt's linkage to control the vertical and lateral movements of the axle.

		This axle would need to be shortened 2" on the driver side and 6" on the passenger side to fit as well as have the C bushing mounts relocated inboard of their present locations - away from the knuckles - to align the lower spring pads with the upper spring buckets.
		The next six are of the front axle with the new vented disk brakes and part of the semi high-steer steering setup and the new front drive shaft.

	IRS vs. Live Axle - Mustang Forums at StangNet
		Because the axle is solid, the point of power delivery (from the drive shaft) is at the centre means that this is the axle's natural axis of lateral rotation.
		That all said, I am sure that the live axle in the '05 will be a fine suspension, likely a marked improvement over the current Stang and probably the most optimal for some particular segments of the Mustang market (drag racers).
		A solid axle does have a disadvantage in that the front being IFS (A-arm or l-arm Mcpherson setup)and the rear being solid, the nature of chassis compression differs twixt front and rear; thus best benefits from a solid axle cannot be reaped without SFC's..

	Live Axle 5 Lug Brake Upgrade
		This tip started with a broken 8.8 rearend: My '89 LX had spun the splines off the right axle shaft, so on the usual minimal budget to repair and get back on the road, I spent a day going through the salvage yard looking for parts.
		I grabbed two driver-side axles (the passenger-side axle is too short), drums, and side gears, and began to repair my broken rear axle.
		So, to summarize: To convert from four-lug to five-lug on '87-'93 Mustangs, get two driver-side axles and two five-lug drums from the rear of a Ranger pickup (this is the same as the Motorsport kit M-1126A, but the price I paid is nowhere near the kit's $227 list).

		Not to mention weak axles, more moving parts to break, no forward bite, a high roll center, wheel hop, rear steer in fast corners and your car will now go out of alignment all the freakin time!
		It may be lower than a stock solid rear axle setup, I'm not sure, but it sure isn't close to a Torque Arm, PHB setup.
		Roll center is determined by the suspension attachment points and a TA, PHB is about as low as it gets, and adjustable with the right ones.
