I got mine from joe@zspeedperformance, he said he had 3 left when I orded mine and just had a shipment of 20 come in that week, he told me whiteline is having major issues keeping these in circulation.

Thanks, I'll talk to Joe. I didn't hear back from another vendor here.

So I noticed my bushing is blown this weekend. Im gonna be taking it to Nissan tomorrow but im not feeling confident that its gonna be covered under warranty. Has anyone had theirs replaced under warranty successfully?

They will have to do the whole subframe... And it will just blow again

Thanks goodness I have all solid back there.

Fully aware it could blow again, I will eventually replace it with something better, but for the moment Im just hoping to get it fixed by Nissan so I can drive to work.

YES

I had the Whiteline KDT911 kit fitted to my Z34 yesterday as the OEM PoS rear diff bush had burst and leaked silicone all over the diff cover.

It is like night and day - axle hop all but cured, and no noticeable increase in NVH.

Whiteline were dubious about NVH as the 370Z rear diff bush is slightly smaller diameter than the 350Z (which is the KDT911 part), but since they won't start research on the Z34 bush until Jan 14, I was not in a piosition to wait.

Getting the bush out requires making an extractor tool (which can be used to fit the new bush along with a healthy dollop of lube).

KDT911 was getting hard to find here in Oz, but found a kit at a local parts distrubtor in the end. Seems like lots of US parts distributors are out of stock as well.

special tool or just an air hammer and a sheet metal bit.

Well Nissan wouldnt do it under warranty, and im NOT spending $1660 for a replacement that will break again. SO I ordered the Whiteline bushings from Z1 tonight, hopefully its OK to drive my Z until it gets here and I can spend a weekend swapping it out.

On that note, anyone have a DIY?

Take out diff, enter air hammer. Other methods from the 350 is building a puller... I had to use a press for the front ones.

From what ive seen - drill hole in rubber, sawzall through metal outer of bushing - remove

Id just take it somewhere but I imagine it would be quite expensive.

That's pretty much it, you can look on 350z.com for that DIY, it'll be near darn it the same.

I think you will have to wait a bit like me bro,i order a Full Differential Upgrade Kit on Sep 19 and i am still waiting on that order :shakes head:.This damn Whiteline bushings are pretty much out of stock everywhere like some had mention.

Z1 shipped to me in 1 day.....
