    Yes you can do it easily with an irule like. Should be many examples on the irules wiki

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [HTTP::uri] eq "blahblahblah" } {
    HTTP::uri "set it to the correct thing"
  }
}

You put me on the right track. I ended up using the REWRITE_REQUEST_DONE event since the HTTP_REQUEST is client side (and only deals with APM hashed URIs)

The iRule looks like :

 

when REWRITE_REQUEST_DONE {
    if { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "?" } {
    HTTP::uri /[HTTP::uri]
  }
}
