CarpeNoctem Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I saw that years ago there was work on a group buy for polygraphite. is there any chance of another? The big one I know I need is at the front of the rear diff. it's visibly had it, but the whole car sways and rocks on clutch out/accel so I know it all needs done, now that Lazarus has been brought back from the grave.

WoodsWagon Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Buy a tube of 3m Window Weld and fill the bushing in yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmashedGlass Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 +1 on doing it yourself with Window Weld. As far as I'm aware, that front hangar bushing is only available from the dealer as an assembly pressed into (and with) the bracket--and that's if your dealer can even find one. I tried once a few years ago and my local (back when I lived in CS/CO) would've had to order it in from out of state and I believe the overall cost was somewhere North of $160. F that.

CarpeNoctem Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 just fill it with the current rubber in place? or remove everything first? what about the rest of the suspension bushings? does anyone have a source for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superpoo93 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Amir, @ outback is awesome!! He has owned Older Subaru's : I forgot to mention these are Super Pro bushing. Edited November 20, 2013 by superpoo93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmashedGlass Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I'd do it with the diff out so that the bushing (what's left of it) has no load. Two very large washers or make your own cover plates, fill bushing generously with poly/Window Weld, then run the bolt and nut back through the sleeve with the washers/plates on the ends to sandwich the poly while it cures.

He has owned Older Subaru's : I forgot to mention these are Super Pro bushing. Awesome thanks! now I just gotta sort through old threads to get all the part numbers for my specific car before I call. I'd do it with the diff out so that the bushing (what's left of it) has no load. Two very large washers or make your own cover plates, fill bushing generously with poly/Window Weld, then run the bolt and nut back through the sleeve with the washers/plates on the ends to sandwich the poly while it cures. of course. otherwise with a bad busing i'm making a new bushing with the center in the wrong spot. I didn't look at it's mounting do I really need to pull the diff? or can I just pull brackets out? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Not so much of pull the diff, just need to drop it down. Bolts on that hanger bracket go all the way thru the diff. Can be a pain to do if they've rusted in any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmashedGlass Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 (edited) I'd do it diff out, just for easier access and I'd also do a full re-seal on the diff. Hell, do the mustache bar bushings while you're at it. Edited November 21, 2013 by SmashedGlass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
