i did some regular maintenance on my car this week and as i was visually checking the car, i notice that the rear diff bushing has a crack in it.
my car is 6\2021 model year with 21,000 miles.
i try to decide if just replace it with oem bushing or go with aftermarket option.

i saw the SPL option and i would like to get some reviews on it, good and bad.
any noticible vibrations?

Solid diff bushings will be unignorable. You will hear gear whine from the planetary gear on accel and decel.

I had them installed but already had Dotekiā€™s motor mounts which already made to gear whine audible. So I didnā€™t notice a difference.

Also, if you still have the stock subframe bushings. Sound and vibes don't increase much if at all. At least I never noticed any increase during testing

I wouldn't bother with the headache of replacing the mounts for solid. Best option is our diff bracing kit....

Easy install, easily reversible and also lock down the pass. Side of the diff which still moves a bit with the solid bushings due to the rear mount placement.
your kit looks amazing
we even talked before, the reason i didnt buy it is because i have the verus cooling diff plate and i dont know if it can be installed together.
also i dont know if i need only the front braces or the rear also, the price difference between them is substantial.

Hey guys, I really want to change the rear subframe bushings and the guy from the shop told me I should go solid for the diff, since the rear has to be taken out anyway.. There is a increase in noise and he says it depends on the person and he would not be annoyed by it but likes the sound. Before I take this decision though..

Anyone has a video of a Supra with solid diff mounts where you can hear the whine? I would really appreciate any kind of help regarding this.
