Fantastic! Lord this could have saved me a ton of headaches and materials waste had these been available a year ago.

I just noticed them through fb, I follow alot of //M and BMW stuff. I agree as well. I like that they have inserts and polurethane bushings. The price is resonable too.

I spent about for or 5 times that to get a barely used diff brace that my indy shop pressed our the bushing to install in my RK billet diff brace. I am forever thankful and appreciative of this valued forum member. I hated having to discard the diff brace but it did get recycled.

If you any of you are modding your M5/M6 and/or are doing burnout starts please consider getting the RK or GAW diff brace. The OEM brace is prone to fracturing and will absolutely leave you with a much more expensive repair bill. Thats aid if you have a high mileage M5/M6 and ya don't mod or dog the car from a dead stop you may find that the diff brace bushing is bad and allowing too much play. Here is your chance to save a ton of money on replacing the diff brace

Thank you Mdriv3r for sharing this bushing resource with us. Everyday I am humbled by the care and support from this community. Every little bit of information shared by past and present owners stands as a testament of everyone's brotherly/sisterly love for one another.

Yeah this is awesome. I have the RK autowerks differential brace that I've yet to install because of the lack of aftermarket bushing.

Finally got the RK autowerks diff mount installed with this bushing. Total cost for install was $390 by my local shop. Everything is great. Only a slight increase in noise during shifts but not that noticeable.

Glad the installation went well. Have you had a chance to test it with a few launches? How would you describe the noise during shifts.. is it a thump? thx

I haven't driven very much. And driving it the other day I honestly couldn't really hear anything. I don't do any hard launches so I won't be able to get that feedback. But this bushing is a viable option for anyone with the RK Autowerks diff mount. I'll report back again after I get some miles on it.
