Product Details

These Whiteline Rear Differential Bushings - Mount In Cradle Inserts fit the 2013-2019 Subaru XV. Whiteline part number: KDT903. In the box: 4 insert bushings, 2 washers, an install guide, and grease. Whiteline's note for this fit: Inserts: installs into voiding of original bushings, positive diff retention. Placement: rear.

The differential is hung from the chassis on bushings that are soft for comfort. Under hard acceleration and braking they let it rock, so power reaches the wheels a moment late and the rear end can feel loose. A firmer bushing holds the differential more steadily, which sharpens throttle response. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces. This version is an insert design, made to fit into the voids of the original bushing instead of replacing the whole mount.

Installation is rated moderate, with about 1.5 hours of work listed. A wheel alignment is not required. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link for the Subaru XV.

Features

  • Insert design: The inserts go into the original bushing rather than replacing it.
  • Bushing material: Made of polyurethane, which resists deflection better than soft rubber.
  • Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
  • Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease comes with it for a longer service life.
  • Self-lubricating: Internal grease reservoirs keep the bushing lubricated as it works.
  • Bonded design: A bonded design adds strength for high load applications.
