Some exciting home videos for your consumption, taken to establish the deterioration of my diff and rear top mounts. The latter are not yet fully blown but not far off; how much movement is the diff bush allowed? It's shown being loaded up in first/reverse with the handbrake on. As an original part it should be ready for binning, but don't wish to replace it needlessly.

Rate my bush:

Duff diff?

Not-so-top mounts

I reckon the diff bush wont be tested under those conditions, car would need to be bouncing down the road.
If it ain't broke..
Fix it till it is :)
