I would be giving the CAT600 bushes ago off ford forums. They are what to will be putting in my new F6 when I pull the rear end out. Pretty sure it's a nolathane center bush and his own spec front bushes.

Before these bushes I ran the pedders nolthane and they were worse for snapping bolts Edited 24/02/14 10:06 AM by RIP85 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86542-constant-diff-bolt-breakage/page/6/#findComment-1457582 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rednose is correct. Grab some Cat front bushes and try them with a good 12.9 bolt. Polish the threads at the point they fatigue. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86542-constant-diff-bolt-breakage/page/6/#findComment-1457587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
