Rear Shifter/Transmission Mount Insert Bushings
 
Anyone here had these bushings replaced? I have been seeing reviews all over the place about the effectiveness of these bushings, separately and together. Who has experience with these and what are your thoughts?

I have these bushings in my car. My recommendation: go all or nothing, as in engine, transmission, and rear diff.

Only swapping out bushings/mounts on one of those three is going to result in a horrible nhv. Swapping all three creates a little nvh, but much less then just one or two.

Interesting. Thanks for your feedback. Has anyone experienced what viru5 is saying?

I've driven his car and compared to mine. I agree with what he is saying.

Do you have only the transmission bushings?

I have nothing.

Oh, I forgot to mention, get an engine tune while you are at it to raise your idle. 600 rpm feels like a massage chair and you sound funny when you talk :)

I'm going to do it all in one shot while the bottom of the car is apart. UEL, over pipe, front pipe, some combination of driveline bushings, tune.
