Differential bushing lockout kit.

[Tinpot]

Any GT500 owners fitted one of these kits ? Whose ? I have a Mach 1 ( hangs head in shame ) which apparently utilises the GT500 subframe and I’m assuming that includes the bushings. I can’t find anyone who makes a kit that possibly fits a GT500 apart from Whiteline and theirs is discontinued. Are these kits even necessary on the GT500 as I can’t find a lot of info on this. TIA.

The bolt fix with sleeve shim at MINIMUM is needed for all Mustang incl. Eco.
The whiteline 'puck' version kit (KDT934) is actually available. The total-replacement one is not, even though it's the far superior solution.

Excellent, thanks. FWIW I did email Whiteline about their full kit and they replied stating it was discontinued but didn’t mention the puck version kit. Do you have the part number ?

see previous post. I just got 2 of them delivered yesterday.

Did you try the BMR site?

Yes. Again, I emailed them to check on compatibility of their BK051 kit mentioned in this GT500 build:

and they said the kit does not fit

As there seems to be a lot of uncertainty, stick your head under the back and grab a photo of a rear bush.

If it looks like this (but with a flange head bolt in the middle - and note the spacing of the rubber tabs) :

Then it might be worth a trial fit of one of the standard Steeda inserts - just give us a shout if you think it’s worth giving one a try

Is this similar to Steeda stop the hop kit?

there are at least 3 tiers to Steeda's stop-the-hop. But you're looking for

beware they DO produce (rather obnoxious) noise at certain resonate frequencies. Only the Whiteline are near-silent.

Where is it available? I've been trying to find it but it wasn't available for a while

I bought it off WhiteLine's website back when it was 30% off over Christmas. Places like Summit Racing should have no trouble sourcing either.

Unfortunately it's out of stock everywhere still :(

I have 2 of them, so could be persuaded to let one of them go.
Let the bidding war commence! /JK
