Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Differential Bushing - Front Mount Kit fits the 1993-2006 Lexus GS300 (S140/S160/S190). It goes on the rear of the vehicle. In the box: 4 bushings, 2 washers, grease, and an install guide. The part number is KDT972.
Holding the differential still is about predictability. Rubber that is too soft lets it twist and move as load comes on and off, so the car squats and lurches a little more than it needs to. A firmer mount keeps it where it should be. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Expect a moderate job of about 1.5 hours. An alignment is required after installation. Application note: Multi-piece bushing assembly. Upper bushing is a complete replacement unit, lower bushing is an insert/supplement used with the OEM bushing in place. To go with it on the GS300, see Rear Sway Bar Link, Rear Adjustable Toe Control Arms, and Front Lower Inner Control Arm Bushing Kit.
Features
- Bushing material: The bushing material is polyurethane, a firmer choice than rubber.
- Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
- Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
- Self-lubricating: Built-in grease reservoirs provide continual lubrication and reduce friction.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
