The bushings come from British Parts Northwest in Oregon. He carries a lot of
upgrade stuff.
And yes I definitely feel more vibration with the poly differential mounts in
place.

What I want to know is where did you get the poly bushings? I am in the
process of replacing the dif and radius arm bushings. I don't have a
Moss catalouge(I keep asking for one, and they never send one), and all
I got from TRF was a price list with no catalouge. And Vicky Brit
doesn't offer poly dif bushings.
