M56 Differential Bushing

[MarseilleExpress]

I bought Urethane rear differential bushings for my 2012 Infiniti M56X as the main rear one is leaking silicone heavily. Has anyone replaced there differential bushings without removing the subframe totally or have any tips/tricks?

Drop the subframe especially since you have no space with awd. It's not that hard. Be careful if you're using the Z1 bushing. You could potentially crush your subframe. My method is risk free and feels great.

My epoxy is holding last I knew. But I also realized I never updated that thread with the info from the brace (it didn't work).

What do you mean by crushing the subframe? As in too big for the hole for it to slide in?

The motorvate guy's g37 was holding up well also. Yea, i saw some guys on fb saying it didn't fit either
Just gotta do a q50 diff and axel swap and it'll fit

there's a video on the Z1 website showing you the subframe is hollow, it doesn't have a support brace permanently welded like the 370z and g37 subframes.

you could just do what Ilya did and use the polyurethane caulking. you can probably do that without dropping the subframe.
