[6pack] Differential mount bushes - rubber or poly?

[Bob Danielson]

Rick,
I did Goodparts Nylatron on the front suspension last year and didn't notice
any additional harshness or noise. This year I'm doing his Nylatron rear
bushings along with his trailing arm kit and differential upgrade. I hoping
for the same results at the back as I got from the front. Just make sure you
examine your mounts very carefully. The first time I checked mine I missed
the cracks as they're not necessarily that obvious. I was looking for a BIG
crack but what I had was a small line that was easy to miss. You can see
what I mean here by it just being a small line

HI,

 

Dropping the differential for rebuilding and I was wondering what people
liked for replacing the differential mounting bushes - rubber or
polyurethane.  This is part of a total rebuild of the car, and I'm trying to
find a way to improve the handling without making the ride too harsh for
daily driving.  I'm leaning towards rubber for vibration isolation but am
curious what others have done.

 

Thanks!
