Martin,

We just finished repairing a cracked diff mount this weekend.  Replaced the 
bushings with a set of Poly's from BPNW and new u-joints for the half-shafts.  
Ran out of time or the trailing arm bushings would have been done too.  Next 
weekend.

The car was jacked up using the rear cross tube under the spare tire well.  We 
used a 4x4x6 with a hole cut in it where the spare tire bolt protrudes.  Worked 
very well, no mishaps and the job was a success.

Dana
