Torn diff bushings

.063" outside diameter
.054" inside diameter

you need a better micrometer, friend. 13.7mm won't fit over the 13.85mm bolt shank.

@WildHorse - I'm confused (it doesn't take much ) or we just have crossed wires ...

1) Why long and short spacers ? I thought only the rear bushes needed these as per the Lethal kit ?

2) Your long spacers are a bit shorter than what @shogun32 quoted, but I guess thats not a problem as its only really there to aid centralisation / stop movment ?

3 ) I assume .063" OD and .054" ID should actually be 0.63" OD and 0.54" ?

4) The OD of 0.63" (16.00mm) is considerably different to what @shogun32 quoted (17.3mm) ?

I would have just bought the spacers from Lethal but they wont split the kit that contains them and adding the other bits bumps up the shipping and then attracts the Customs / Tax man when they get to the UK ...

There's 4 mounting bolts. As for the bolt shank..

are you measuring a S197 diff? The '18+ rear diff uses 14mm bolts, 6 of them in 3 different lengths.

Seriously?

yes I'm serious. your diff doesn't look like mine at all. How many bolts do you have on the back plate? And yes the BMR kit says 15+ S550 on the label. What's your thread pitch? Let me guess 1/2"x20? I don't know if you're a one-off or Ford changed things mid-stream somewhere.

take a pic of the back plate.

What's different ? And why are you comparing BMR junk to stock ?
