What Did You Do To Your Car Today?

I fitted some new diff bushes today. I swapped out the diff oil while I was at it. 

 

The diff bush tool worked beautifully. 

 

Although I managed it in decent time I gotta say that doing it in the driveway kinda sucks.

 

I took it for a test drive and it feels heaps better.

 

Now to smash some beers.

Was it heaps shagged before you done it? 

I ask because mine seems fairly tight. Even with my high km's. Pretty sure they're the originals. 

[Puffwagon]

Yeah 2 were pretty stuffed.

 

I could feel that they were worn for a while but when it tramped at the drags it wrecked them. 

 

It was so bad that if I gave it any the whole car would lurch sideways and also I would have to correct it if I hit any road variations on the highway. 

 

I took many pictures during the process. I'll put them up tomorrow cos I cbf tonight. I'll chuck one or 2 up now. 

 

 

 

Control blades are in poor condition so I'll replace them soon as well. Also have to replace tailshaft centre bearing asap.

[ROB83R]

I'm not showing any of those symptoms just yet. 

I'm gathering you dropped the whole rear end out? 

How many km's have you got on yours? 

[Puffwagon]

Yep I dropped the subframe and removed the diff.

 

Mine currently has 157xxx. 

 

I noticed that there had been at least one set of bushes installed previously due to cut marks in the bush housings.
