Rear differential bushing replacement
« on: October 06, 2010, 09:26:12 PM »
Browsing around DDM site, I notice they have a urethane replacement rear diff bushing.  Who here has tried this and what effects have you noticed?  I hate the clunky (sounding) tranismission when stopping & starting off in 1st and wanted to know if this is a 'cure'(?)

I asked Dave about that at one of Joe's meets and he said newer cars have an improved bushing if I remember correctly.  In any case, he said it was not needed on my 2008 RL. Maybe he'll jump in here and clarify.
