RAIN! Don't worry about the rain, just send it down here! We're in the worst drought since the REALLY bad one in the early fifties.

To the bushings, I can't tell much from the picture. I have to use the 4 P's to check them; Push, Pull, Pry and Prod.

I was answering from my IPhone so I'll add details. In my experience, bad diff mounts result in clunking, not vibration. If you don't have a jack to move it around, if you can get the car up high enough and blocked up safely, just grab the front of the diff at the pinion and hang on it. Yank up and down and if the bushings are bad you will see and hear that they are loose.

If you have to replace the diff mounts, make or buy a GOOD puller and get ready for a work out. Also consult the FSM and make sure you orient the bushings correctly or they will be short lived.

Hope this helps,
Larry
