I'm planning on installing solid subframe bushings and I figured it would also be a good time to upgrade the diff bushings. I'm looking for opinions or experience from anyone who has done a diff bushing upgrade. Primary usage of the car will be daily driver with the occasional autocross event. I'm hoping to maintain the majority of the refinement that the car has now while improving the performance and feel of the rear end.

I see that both Powerflex and AKG make bushings at various hardnesses, and I see that their design also differs slightly in the amount of aluminum used.

Thanks!

I have Powerflex black series inserts, oem diff bushings with vwetish diff lockdown kit. Primarily daily driver but see occasional track too. Monroe upper shock mounts made a lot of difference too.

You can just get the lockdown brace from vwetish and don't bother with diff bushings. Many of us running solid SF bushings with the brace and stock diff bushings.
