I think??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yoyu would need to drill a hole in the spare wheel tub to remove the bolt fully, as the bolt is close to the boot / spare wheel lining. then fit a rubber grommet in the boot lining to prevent crud and water getting in.But I seriously doubt the new polyurethane bush will wear out in the life of the car.Highly recommend fitting a strengthened diff hat from Mal Woods at the same time, along with a high tensile bolt. as the harder bush will likely crack the standard weak diff hat in higher powered cars.

T56 manI guess luck's got to run out soon.... good to know there is a stronger replacement on the way for when mine finally lets go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
