J30 diff bushings

[silk240]

does anyone know where to get the two front mounting bushings on the J30 diff? and whats the easiest way to press them in with out a press machine. which means hammering them in im guessing?

Are you talking about the two bushings that go on the front of the j30 diff?THey don't need to be pressed by a machine or anything I believe..

I just made sure that when I got my j30 diff from the junkyard I took everything (bushing, bolts etc.)

It bolted right up and I haven't had any problems. I did the swap like a few months ago and plenty of burnouts since and no problems..

But yeah you can't use the 240sx parts, bolts or bushing or bad things can/will happen.

Courtesy Nissan might sell them..

Honestly I think your best luck is to get them off a J30 at a junkyard though..

if installing in an s13 install with spl parts front snout spacers...they are solid as is intended for use with the s13 subframe.

If you get the J30 diff bushings they are "solid."They are sold metal disks (like a washer) with rubber surrounding them.The rubber doesn't allow for any flex, so you don't have to worry about the torque force going to the rear diff housing mounting.

Just don't use S13 Diff bushings.

yeah i was told that the stock s13 (240sx) bushings will not work. i just hope that these bushings are not too big of a hassle to put in.

haha, i just tore mine up last night and the front side of that J30 diff just came down at an angle.... The rubber was just worn out and it was just a matter of time b4 the diff would break right thru. So now i have to either find aftermarket ones or get some oem replacements...

Hey silk240... did u ever get new ones..??
