frozenxr6t Member 140 Member For: 10y 8m 16d Posted 16/08/15 06:27 AM Share Posted 16/08/15 06:27 AM the fg is in bad need of diff bushes as she been clunking for a little while now. ive read about the superpro comforts and that if you have much more than stock hp theyll wear out quick also. I have a tad over 300rwkw so is the superpro hd the only option?I dont particually want a heap of noise but if they are the best option for long life ill go with them and get some sound deading for the rear seats etc.cheers kane Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91000-fg-diff-busheswhat-to-replace-with/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specs New Member 23 Member For: 11y 2m 7d Posted 16/08/15 11:04 AM Share Posted 16/08/15 11:04 AM Depends on how good your diff was assembled (be it factory or aftermarket rebuild) I have superpro hd bushes in my near stock fg and the only noise I get is a humming dead on 80km/h, whilst a mate has a full moded fg with a trutrac centre and his is quieter then stock bushes with the superpro hd. I have a manual and noticed a significant difference when taking off from a standstill, it feels a lot firmer (in a good way) in the way it transmits the power and they have made the clunks go away as well as reduce axle tramp.

I'm glad that's not your cat. Rough as guts job that cut. Could be executed properly and wouldn't be a bad solution 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91000-fg-diff-busheswhat-to-replace-with/#findComment-1558399 Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 22y 1m 1d Gender: Male Posted 17/08/15 03:34 PM Share Posted 17/08/15 03:34 PM Don't drill a hole. You will find the front diff bushes should also be done like in my FG so you still need to take the cradle out. I am pretty sure the drivers side front is the one doing the knocking in my instance.
