White Line and SPL.

Both are good, but if you are tracking the car a lot consider getting the solid SPL's. If you are tracking just here and there the whitelines will be quieter and smoother.

Either way, when you replace the diff bushings, consider doing a new differential and definitely change out the oil. It's the same labor cost.

I attached a photo of the diff. There is a little bit of dried fluid but could it be a one time thing caused by some hard driving? It seems dried and that no additional fluid has leaked for a while

I am thinking of trading this car in either this year or next year so I don't want to have to do another huge service if necessary
