I just installed a BMR brace on my diff and i absolutely love it. I saw a guy post his diff straight wrecked from the bolts breaking that attach to the bushing and diff. He claims 20k miles and saucing it often. Ive been saucing mine quite often and have 3500 miles on it, so i went ahead and got the brace.
1. The shipping from BMR was pretty quick. I ordered last thursday and it arrived tuesday(today)
2. The brace comes packaged in little bubble wrapped packages , and also are placed into plastic that are heat sealed. All seperate. The only downfall was there are no instructions, but youtube has quite a few videos of the install.
3. The brace took me 30 minutes to install. I shit you not. I had received a notification stating it was delivered while i was at the gym before work, and i went home just to put it on before work. Youll need some e torx, socket wrench allens, and a torque wrench. Also preferably ramps to get the car up quick.
4. After the install, I went to work. Instantly the car felt like it was stiffer and had a straighter feel when accelerating. For some reason the shifts felts smoother and im assuming its due to the rear diff slop from not being as secure as it is now with the bmr brace.
10/10 recommend this if youre trying to avoid the bolts snapping. I also have ARP Diff bolts coming in just to cover all my ends, but overall if youre looking for a brace i recommend BMR
*update*
Have had it on for two days and the cars diff is much more stable. No wheel hop, and shifts feel very crisp. The car does slide if you get on it now even with traction control on but is not unbearable. Still recommend the brace
