I am looking for a front diff mount insulator. Looks like a brick on the diff brace mounted by two long bolts.

You can see it under the car between the exhaust pipes before it bends out towards bumper.

Kind of urgent

Lost mine at 100mph on autobahn. Was tooling with it and didnt torque down all the way before hitting road.


I'm getting driveline vib at 85mph so I'll be going with a cf ds also.

Correct your pinion angle, don't bother with that damper weight, it's a bandaid and is not going to correct your vib.

At minimum get the Fulltiltboogieracing.com diff mounting bushings and kill two birds with one stone.

Eliminate center diff housing movement and establish the correct pinion angle geometry.

It would be best though to just do the whole kit with grease fittings.

I recently had a lpw cover and ftbr diff bushing installed. The shop took off that dampner weight, said I had no need for that anymore since my pinion angle is set. I know I should have bought the whole bushing kit, little at a time.

I have on a shelf.
If you still need one let me know.

Jimmy's advice is very good.
