When I shift hard now I get a very loud clunk noise from the back of my car. Did you ever get that and has it gone away with these new bushings?

Sorry, my review kinda sucked. But if you look at the cheapness of the OEM bushings, and then look at the Beatrush pieces, you know they are there to perform leaps and bounds better than the OEM pieces. Highly recommended.

I also installed the propeller shaft and rear diff bushings awhile back. Thanks again to KamiSpeed for its great service and for carrying such great products.

Vibrations are down but you can hear the propeller shaft whining a bit more as the rubber pieces most likely dampened a lot of that sound. It's not annoying loud or anything and is just slightly audible.

The rear diff bushings are a godsend and work wonders when you're upshifting quickly as the clunk is completely gone. It never came back once through the launches and fast shifting I put the car through at the track.

It's also a peace of mind and insurance factor knowing that there's less play in the propeller shaft which would put less stress on the TC and rear diff as the shaft is more stable while operating.

I would highly recommend these bushings to anyone that asks.

BTW, ripping off those stock rubber bushings can be a pain the butt; they're practically glued on there.
