Rear Diff mount reinforcement

The S15 diff is mounted onto the rear subframe with 4 mounts, 2 below the diff and 2 behind the diff casing with rubber bushed mounts.

The 2 rear mounts will tend to sag first due to weight of diff stressing the rubber bush at point load.

I hear that there are such aftermarket bush locks for WRXs like the subframe locks available for S15s!

Anyone come accross such aftermarket parts to support the diff mounts on S15 ?

I've found out that SuperPro from Australia has a complete list of PU bushes for S15.

I am thinking of replacing my

1. engine mounts
2. gearbox mount
3. rear diff mounts

I'll decide after I talk to the local dealer in my conntry. I'm just wary of more NVH in my interior....as it is now, I'm already getting lots from:

1. Fuel pump
2. Clutch/lighten flywheel
3. Subframe locks
4. Engine damper
5. Exhaust
