I fitted my C-One rear diff mount today, so naturally, I took pics!
I was able to use the 2 post lift at my mates work, which makes this mod a LOT easier I guess. I don't want to think about the idea of doing this with the car on the ground.. :wink: To get the old diff mount out, the diff needs to be moved forward and slightly downwards a bit. First step was to soak 14 bolts in WD40:
There it is, the stocker (unbolted already in this pic):
While unbolting the diff itself, I noticed the holes in the diff case are significantly larger than the bolts which go through it. Therefore I marked the diff and chassis to prevent vibrations (and stress in the drivetrain) caused by a wrongly aligned diff later on:
With the help of an extra support we lowered the diff a little bit so I could wiggle the stock mount out.
OEM vs. C-One (Looks nice and beefy):
Next up; slide the C-One mount in, raise the diff and bolt all parts up again. The new mount in place:
And what a difference it makes! When I lift off the throttle when driving, there are no nasty clunks and weird sounds anymore. All good for the next couple of years and km's! 8)
