replacing irs diff mount bush?

[sk2304]

I did an diff oil change today and thought I'd put in a diff mount bush. Followed the instructions, jacked the diff, undid the 4 13mm bolts that hold it to the chassis. Then lowered the jack. The diff only dropped about 20mm. How do I get to the bolts behind it as the fuel tank is in the way? Have I missed something?

Solved. Previous owner install different exhaust and was catching on the drive shaft.

I ended up fitting one of these,

Damn the back end feels solid I can't wait to give it a hard time!

G’day guys, so I am going to change my diff cradle bush tomorrow, I received a white line series II bush but I have a 2003 VY spac 1 series.
Will it fit or will I have to make some “custom” changes to it? And any more tips apart from the ones above would be great.
Cheers fellas

Also by putting your car on stands does that go for the front as well? Or would I be right with just the rear on stands?
