All the bushings are out!

Here's the two main diff bushings removed. The one on the right is oil filled. Don't puncture it with a drill like I did or you'll end up with a face full of oil lol.



I'm going to clean up the subframe and recoat it before install. Still figuring out which chassis black to use that will stand up to being in a harsh under car environment.

I'm leaning towards Eastwood 2k ceramic chassis black, but that would require me waiting a couple of weeks for an order to arrive... Decisions... Por15 makes a chassis black too, but I've had mixed luck with plain jane por15. Still unsure...

So I'm brutal at updating this stuff....

But here's a quick before and after shot of the rear of the car:





The few fasteners on the LCAs and trailing arms that aren't new and shiny are on order at the dealer.
