Default Lies and rumors..

There are 3 mounts on the rear diff. Two are bushing style on the rear end, and 1 is a bizarre unit on the nose.

We're just started production on the rear 2 bushings. Front bizarre piece is still testing our prototype.

Default Mike, I have some great pics of my failed rear diff mount that I'm going to post soon

Should be able to early next week at the latest. It appears that damn thing is hydraulic - a ton of oil came out of it upon removal - it actually had separated into 2 pieces.

Once you finish that, can you come up with a solution for all the bushing in the front end?

Default yea, the front one.. I'm on my second oem mount and they're too expensive

I put a piece of rubber in there to limit travel but it starting clunking again. The two at the rear are much smaller and don't seem to get torn up as easily as the big front one. Please keep us posted!

Default Look again

The other two are on the rear end.
Look like this.
