Appears to be a single longish crack and only in the resin. I expect it will be a relatively easy repair unless the fibers are damaged also.

eh, the corner was damaged on my seibon hood when it arrived. bodyshop said they would use resin and then blend it in with tinted clear.

Did you get squirted with silicone when you first start to cut with the hole saw? :rofl2: There is 2 chambers in the bushing. One of them leaks everything out, while the other still has silicone in it. when you cut it, it squirts. :eek:

I used my big floor jack to lower and raise the diff. I had no problem doing mine, EW, and JL's.

Nope. It was bone dry!

Make sure there is nothing sticking up, and no burr's in the hole. Anything in there WILL cause you a headache. Put lots of anti-seize in the hole. And put the bushing in the freezer over night.

When you start to install the bushing. Make sure it goes in straight. You may have to take a hammer to tilt it. When pulling the bushing in. And the all thread gets tight. You can use a hammer to tap on the bushing/ The vibrations from tapping on it will help the bushing going in.

Looking back, getting the bushing out was easier than getting the new one in. I think I started it not perfectly centered and I'm at the point of no return.. I found a thick metal plate from home depot I'm using to tighten a bolt against hasn't bent. I need a ratcheting breaker bar. Been attacking this bolt for half an hour and not even half way. I'm calling it a night and regroup and finish saturday.
