PCE diff cover

Getting ready to order a PCE rear diff cover. What bushing does everyone use in cover? Can you get that bushing separately or is there a full differential bushing kit? Thank you guys for any help

I have BMR Pro bushings in my LPW cover (which is essentially the exact same thing). Keep in mind that the load bolts in the diff cover are like putting a stethescope right to the ring and pinion - if the rear end is not PERFECTLY silent, you will hear whatever noise it makes. Getting these rear ends to be perfectly silent with more aggressive ratios in a mushy light aluminium case is... a challenge. So, don't be surprised if you pick up a little gear noise - just keep telling yourself "racecar stuff" over and over to drone it out.

We carry both the PCE cover and the bushings here at GPI - shoot me a message if you want to get a set ordered from us.

It will also amplify noise from bad hub bearings and make it sound like it's coming from the diff. Had me chasing my tail for a while.

Thank you. Let me make sure shop hasn't ordered it yet. I will get back with you.
And car only has 11000 miles on her. Shouldn't have any issues

It’s a good time to upgrade to Hendrix offset differential bushings and never worry about your stock axles.
