If you want to get rid of diff. distortion/deflection put some aluminum bushings in the front diff brace. A delrin rear cover bushing will help as well. Get rid of the crappy stock bushings. The rear diff cover brace will prevent the diff. cover from shattering due to hard launch, wheelhop, or other unwanted evil forces. Yes you have to remove the passenger side of the catback to do the brace. It is a pretty easy, straightforward install.
