How many of you have any experience in these? Recently, I have noticed some slack in my driveline which makes a small thud when I shift hard. After some reading, I collect that the stock bushings in our cars are pretty soft, allowing for some driveline play during hard shifts. These are supposed to remedy (and/or improve) on that problem.

Rudy, I know you have the rear subrame outrigger bushings, right? How much of a difference did they make?

Anyway, here's the link to the product I'm looking into:

I would imagine that these stiffer bushings should improve slightly on the power delivery due to less driveline play. I'm intending to buy the kit(s). I'll let you folks know how I like (or dislike) it.

 

^^i was planning to do the same thing. i am looking to get the rear diff bushings as they are supposed to help with the "clunck". I am going to wait till after my trip to japan as i am already spending $1600 this week on parts and i need some $$ to take with me. So if you do your outrigger bushings let me know how it goes and i may just order both

 

I didn't install these but I've done them before when I had to do my tranny


should be fairly simple

i'll let you know if i ever get around to installing mine. they've been sitting in a box for over 6 months.

 

Lol, Ty. You've always got some parts laying around to look forward to. That's more than most can say, .

 

Hi Josh how are you today?

 

I'm quite dandy, Pare. And how goes it for you?

 

Uncle Rudy is trippin!

 

Well, I've installed the transmission mount bushings as well as the rear subframe outrigger bushings so far.

I have already noticed a better feel as far as driveline lash goes. It feels firmer down there (heh heh). NVH is up though as would be expected when changing to less compliant bushings. You can hear what's going on in the drivetrain under you.

On the way are: STi 5MT transmission mount, rear differential bushings.

This should firm things up even MORE! Stay tuned for updates.

 

HEY...you bought the "Clunk Killer" didn't you?

TiC is an awesome little company.

Good guys that have saved my azz a couple of times

 

it feels firm down there...haha..btw when you purchase your trans mount, don't forget to buy me one too....thanks in advance...

I've got the following coming in

Rear Klunk Killer

Trans X Member Bushings

I'll let you know how the install goes
