:wtf2:

Holy moly. I didn't even know this diff bushing issue was a thing. I went outside and peeked at mine, and sure enough, black streaks. I don't drive the car hard, and as I was telling my friend yesterday, I've had the thing for two years and never even really launched it.

Does anyone know of any long term repercussions if you've been driving around on a shot bushing for a while? (Unknowingly) I'm gonna replace them ASAP, but I wonder if there's anything else I should inspect.

None really, maybe more stress on the motor/trans mounts?

You'll just get clunking if you DO drive hard or launch it hard

I wouldn't say that. The diff bushings SUCK, and it's hit or miss most like every other Nissan issue, like the CSC, some people KILL the OEM one with DD in 10k miles, and sometimes they last 50k+, same with oil consumption, some just burn oil after 10k miles, and we got guys here who are at 100k+ and 50K+ after being hard boosted

If the article was right they say it puts more stress on the drive train like the drive shaft so I'd replace as soon as you can.

LOL. Or pay some dude in TJ to T-bone the passenger side for $1300.:tup:

That sucks man. I hope you find a solution that is reasonable. This is another reason why i dont buy used car's/ sports cars.
