Well isn't that nifty. I'll have to remember that one. Though pressing in the new mount with a hydraulic press was a lot easier than using a vice.

Made what I needed on the lathe... 1.85 id, 1.99 step od... fit perfectly. No fire, no toxic fumes, no mess. The knurled rod has a 1.75 od.

The 2nd diff support assy took 30 mins... now the rear member with 2 bushings... this took a lil creativity...

Man I love those blocks you have for your press. Did you buy them separately or did they come with the press? I just got the brick looking ones.

They came with it.

The Pampena aluminum rear diff bushings are awesome. I don't notice any additional vibration over my solid motor mounts, and they completely eliminated the 'clunk' when I shift (the aluminum driveshaft I installed a while back eliminated a ton of this clunk/slack as well). All 4 of my original mounts were cracked (~117k). Relatively easy install, too.
