Re: Fifteen minute, $15.00 rear suspension mod.
.
I am going out to svxfiles this weekend and take a couple of regulation-size hockey pucks to use for this mod.  They are heated and formed under pressure of vulcanized rubber, measure 1" thick and 3" in diameter. Easy to drill and do not flatten or bulge under weight. This is all I use between my floor jack and pinch welds. No damage to either when jacking my car. Some muscle cars use them in fabricating replacement mounts. Less than $2.00 each. .

Re: Fifteen minute, $15.00 rear suspension mod.
I did this mod and it's a great band aid that may end up being a permanent mod. Looks like the inner sleeve of the bushings have separated from the rubber part and that's why they move up/down under load, particularly when shifting from P to R or to D. Doing the bushings means dropping the entire cross member deal that's attached to the diff, then pressing in/out the bushings. Not a super big deal for some but this mod should go a long way.
