rear diff bushing selection question
okay, i've got a bit of a quandry here, and i'm hoping that somone thats installed new rear diff bushings can help with. both Noltec and Whiteline make rear diff bushings, but they're labelled quite differently -- and i'm trying to figure out if they're equivilent parts. the Noltecs have metal inserts, and the whitelines appear not to. metal inserts would make for more NVH, but i don't really care if they improve driveline feel. so, are these suckers the same bushings?

the first ones...the whitelines go on the front support ontop the stock bushings. no pressing, they just kinda sit there and press against the frame of the car.
and the noltecs are to be pressed in to replace the stock bushings. i think the outrrigger replace the bushings that the whitelines cover. and the others replace the rear diff supports. but im not positive.

hmmm. if the whitelines just cover the stock bushings, that kinda seems like a waste to me. explains why they're cheaper though... anyone have any idea what sort of pressures are going to be required to press in the Noltecs?
