350z Whiteline Diff bushing install

[Alex Becker]

What a coincidence! I’m doing a Whiteline diff bushing install in about an hour. Can’t wait to get this broken bushing out.

😀 Glad to help!

Quick question before I get into this: Did you notice any abnormal vibrations from flipping the front bushings?

[Frank]

I actually placed the bushings how Whiteline suggested they would go from their instructions. I have not found any issues with this setup.

Make sure when you are done, you TQ everything to spec and you recheck the torque in about 50 driven miles to make sure they are good.

In case you need it:

Thanks! Got the car in the air and all bolts/nuts are loose except for the rear pumpkin bolt. Broke my cheap HF breaker bar on it, so I’m letting it sit with some PB on it overnight and give it another shot tomorrow morning.

Amazingly easy to break the axle and driveshaft bolts… kinda scary easy

EDIT: Just realized that you’re a 3D modeler as well!

Ouch, I have broken plenty of HF bars.

Like you can see in this video, I broke their Bearing removal tool trying to get the bearings out.
