Powerflex poly diff bushing failure

Can you torque with those though? Crow’s foot?

crow’s food and simple math. Or angle them at 90deg and will be close enough, but give the little space just do the math as torque on the wrench will be slightly less.

i don’t do the 20NM + 90deg, is too much, i used 77-80NM and that’s it.

I just drop the subframe down a few inches when the trunk floor is in the way 🤷🏽♂️

Ended up getting those and they worked. Wrench started to slip and round off at 90 degrees so it just barely worked. Stuck a 2 foot piece of 1” pvc on the wrench for leverage on the wrench


Also rented this tool from AutoZone for free and cleaned up a few questionable threads and cleaned up my bolts. Worked really well

Fack, I have one in my car with no miles on it (long story) and I was trying to justify leaving it. In spite of what literally everyone says lol.

What's the best tool to install an OEM front diff mount with the subframe in the car? I know the diff needs to come out to make room.

cheap RTAB tool and a socket, very easy

There is a URO rear diff cover now it looks like for a reasonable price. Anyone try it yet?

[maupineda]

That URO cover is a modified OE cover with e36 bushings. I see it has been machined so it is compatible with e8x M

good lord the OE rear differential cover is $700 now? 😂 when did this happen

April of 2020 I paid $302.43 for the cover, proper diff oil, Loctite 5790 sealant, and a new magnetic drain plug.
