Install Instructions
Instructions:
Step 1: Remove any skid plates to access the two mounting brackets on the front of the diff.
Step 2: Remove the two mounting brackets from the front diff. The driver side bracket has three 19 mm bolts fastening it to the side of the diff housing. The passenger side has two 19 mm bolts holding it to the diff. Next, remove the long 19 mm bolt that goes through the front of bracket and frame of the truck, using a 19 mm socket and 19 mm wrench to hold the nut located just above the frame. The diff. will stay in place. It doesn’t fall out, but just sags slightly.
Step 3: Now it’s time to remove the old bushing from your brackets. The differential bracket has a steel sleeve that’s pressed in, and it will remain in place. We are only removing the old worn rubber bushing. Heat the metal around the bushing with a torch (propane, acetylene, etc.) until it starts to snap, crackle, and pop. This sound is indicating that the rubber has separated from the metal sleeve. Continue to heat the metal around the bushing until the bushing can be pushed out with a screwdriver.
Step 4: Once the old bushing is removed, torch any remaining rubber left in the metal sleeve of the bracket and scrape off any debris. This would be a good time to paint the brackets (adds 5 hp).
Step 5: Now it’s time to press your new bushing into your clean diff. mount brackets. The new bushings are slightly larger in diameter than the diff. bracket sleeve. Protect the top of the diff. bushing with a rag or piece of cardboard and use a small press or a pair of channel-locks to squeeze the new bushings into place. Do not use a hammer to install the bushings. Dawn dish soap or hair spray (Aqua Net) should be used to lubricate the new bushing to help aid in easy installation. Reassemble brackets to the diff. and you’re done.
