Free differential bushing removal tool.

All you have to do is find the person that has it.

I'm guessing the tool from Z1 is out of the question?
It looks expensive for something you can probably Jerry rig yourself, but you can always sell it to someone else on the forum when someone else's inevitable blows out.

It's garbage. Get yourself a deep 2" holesaw from Home Depot to cut through the inner and outer bushing rubber. 3 cuts with a sawzall. Knock out with a muffler tool.

I do them in 20 minutes. Longer if I'm BSings with someone.

You will still be blind cutting. If you're doing the sub-frame bushings too. Drop it. If not, why bother.

Hey Knuckle Dragger. Which bushings you installing. Poly or the SPL's? If the SPL's, put the big bushing in the freezer overnight. If the poly's. Be careful when installing. They like to squeeze out of the sides just in front of the hole. Anti-seize the chit out of the hole for either bushing before installing.

Poly. Put the two front bushings in yesterday piece of cake. Had all 3 in the freezer. But I forgot to lube the front bushings. So now the whole diff is sitting outside the garage overnight so hopefully theyll shrink and I can pull them out and lube 'em. Tried a spray can of white lithium while they were in but not willing to trust that.

To any differential thieves reading this: don't even think about it. There's a motion alarm on the driveway. I'm armed, Joby-sized, and I sleep nekkid.
