No dramas at all and the rear end really holds down well now, instead of ending up sideways in first and second when launching it, car seems to just hold the rear straight now and progresses to the next gear. A major improvement on traction and no more broken diff bush ever again. Anybody thinking of doing these mods, its well worth it hows the NVH levels with the new setu?

(I fitted nolathane side bushes with my diff hat, the two piece ones) ive heard lots of good things about the CAT600 bushes Daniel makes but unsure of pros/cons with that and the Mal Wood hat set up as opposed to the Independent Motorsport dual bush diff hat setup..

JET50T Donating Members 152 Member For: 14y 2d Gender: Male Location: Castle Hill Posted 16/02/15 10:47 PM Share Posted 16/02/15 10:47 PM I have this setup with Cat600 front bushes and there is quite a bit of NVH. Must make a difference having the Nolathane front bushes. Very solid though. Also if you do ever decide to go back, the diff mounted bracket welded on to the rear crossmember is a $20 part. Have replaced them in a few Falcons and Territory's hit in the rear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
