hey guys,

replaced my centre diff bush with the nolathane one today, only one they had in stock, and since I have put it in, it is making a horrible whining noise from the rear, not accelerating or taking off, only when slowing down? will this go away, also it still knocks a little now and then.

any help would be great thanks.

rang nolathane today and they said it is there "old design" and that it makes a huge whining noise, there new improved design is better and sending me one free of charge, but uhm who cops the cost of changing it again? hrm..

Do the nolathane bushes have a metal outer shell? If they don't the rear bush can be changed in situ.

obviously the bolt is too long to be pulled out directly but because the Bush isn't a press fit (well the Superpro bush isn't) you can use the bolt as a lever to rotate the bust and pry it out.

Then lube up the new bush. Slip the bolt into the sleeve in the bush and then push the bush back in.

oh ok, no it doesn't have a metal case just a solid rubber design, on the instructions for this one it never said to lube it :\ thought about it but didn't, just grease for it obviously?

thanks

So next time my diff bush goes (superpro ) I can just jump under there and pop another superpro in? It's that easy???

Easy might be a strong term but you can swap superpro with superpro cradle in place. But if the rear has failed, the fronts will be sad. If you swap out the rear with trashed fronts (especially if they are stock rubber) you're only putting a bandaid on a bullet wound.
