Looks like i'll be changing mine now... Just found some oil leaking on my exhaust, and i BEEN having that front end knocking noise but did not know where it was coming from & my car hesitates on gear shifts.... Glad i stumbled upon this!

 

Do all the G35s share the same differential bushings?

I'm looking into getting the complete KDT911 kit for the front and rear differential bushings on my '05 6MT sedan, but it doesn't expressly say that the sedan uses the same parts as the 350Z and the G coupe.

Whiteline's website doesn't show it when you drill down through the years, but going to the actual parts page shows both the "Base" and "X" G35s listed under fitment: https://whitelineperformance.com/nis...bushing-kdt911

 

Call energy suspension directly for that answer. Not energy suspension parts, but energy suspension USA.

 

Called Whiteline today and they confirmed all RWD Z33 and V35 differential bushings are the same. So, yeah, the KDT911 Whiteline kit fits G coupes and sedans alike.

 

Except for active rear wheel steer, obviously .

 

It would be a great idea, surprised your bushing has lasted that long.

 

There is no way it did blue. Replace those bushings ASAP.

 

you can put only the rear end up in the air on jackstands, as long as you have the room personally to fit under the car. getting the subframe bushing out is very labor intensive. I sawed, burned and pounded mine out for over an hour in my 03 coupe.


quick tip on reinstalling the whiteline bushing is to put it in the freezer and once it contracts it will slide right into place. no press or draw in bolt necessary.

 

does that go for removing the old ones?

 

I heated mine and used a press, scragglerock does it a lot more though so he would know better. The subframe bushing was a bitch and a half no matter how you remove it.

 

I have a rattling sound at low speed 12-25 m/s (20-40km/s).
Is this the knocking sound? I am also looking at the end links thread.

Get a suspension professional to check it out. Or put it on a lift. Don't check online. Go pry stuff in the suspension!
