witeline diff bush inserts, and front bushes

[Brad88]

hey guys i don't know if any one has put these in but when i was looking at getting theses (whiteline diff bush inserts) i saw a post on another site saying the the inserts for the front bushes (in the cradle under the "snout" of the diff) do not fit as they are solid.

this is incorrect one is solid one isn't, the passenger side one is where you put the inserts i am fairly sure and it even says in the instructions they only go in one of the bushes.

it didn't really bother me as i replaced the front bushes (whole thing) anyway and i just used the inserts for the rear,

the bolts that go through the middle of the bush are bloody tight (front ones) , i had to use about a metre long bar to crac them.the bushes took about 12-15 tonne of force on the press with lube to get them out, so its not really a job you can do at home without a hoist and a decent press (i am just lucky my work has these things) all up it took me about 3 or so hours to do so i am not sure how much a shop would charge for it.

i Havant driven the car too much just from work to home as of yet because i just put them in today but already it seems allot better than stock and doesn't feel any rougher at all.

thought i would put this up just incase anyone wanted to do the same.

The snout mount I would recommend a hoist for, f&;&(&king tight. The bushes you can hacksaw out though. I picked up a GR sti alloy snout cradle and did it separate and threw the steel one from the car in the bin. Right hand side bush is hydraulic and useless so it's a good thing to do to maintain uni alignment.

Rear bushes you can get with a hacksaw too. Whiteline and turn in concept require full removal of bush. Superpro only require removal of the rubber (keep steel).
