BMR diff bushings

[Kyle0995]

So I installed BMRs diff bushings today along with some eibach sport lines. I already had the steeda alignment bushings and irs bushing supports. Now when I put the car in gear or shift I get a hard clunking noise from the rear. Anyone else have this issue?

Well considering you just modified a bunch of stuff and now getting a noise it's probably related. I would start with going over every nut and bolt to make sure they are secure. If you have already done this I apologize but def a place to start if not.

Yeah triple checked every nut and bolt and rechecked after hearing the clunk. It may just be how the diff bushings transfer sound I guess.

You went poly or derlin?

This probably doesn't help much, but I had installed the Steeda transmission bushing and heard a lot more noises (thuds, etc) that were there before but just amplified quite a bit from the bushing. I ended up taking it out since it was bothering me too much but I could see the diff bushings having the same effect.

its completely normal youre just hearing the noise from the extra NVH its fine.. the car did it before youre just hearing it now. relax lol

 

[Mikeiscoo2]

your car didn't break because you put bushing supports in lmao

Yeah I was figuring that it was just how the poly bushings transferred the noise that was already there. It's not extreme I was just curious if anyone else had the issue lol. On the plus side I have no more wheel hop lol. Thanks for all the replies.

Lol, I agree with mike. You will get some increase in NVH, but it's just the car letting you know what's happening.

I ended up getting the poly set, as I didn't know the derlin was available at the time of order. How're you liking them?

 

[Kyle0995]

It helped the wheel hop like advertised. I just don't like hearing noise like this in a brand new car but you can't have everything and expect it to be perfect. I went this direction because I figured the ford racing cradle would be to extreme for a daily driven car. It's honestly not to bad wile your driving. Just be warned it was a pain to get the old bushings out lol.

Totally normal, that's the sound your gonna get. I've done several sets with the same result.

Thanks for the reply I was hoping to get info from someone that has installed them and witnessed the same noise. Thanks again.
