My Son and I replaced the rear Diff bushings and while we were at we upgraded the diff cover with Z1's finned one. The Job took us about 4 hours total, it would have gone quicker I think if Z1 had sent all the parts with their tool I ordered. It came with out the large washer to use to remove the rubber center.
I feel their tool wasn't much of a benefit and if i was going to do it again I would just use a sawzall to cut the steel ring out. It took a lot of muscle and pressure to press it out and the tool went cockeyed on us and that took quite a while to remove.
Glad we did it our selves but can't recommend anyone spending the money on this tool even if they send all the parts with it.
