Message	This is from an old post, this isn't my photo but I found I was having the same problem as illustrated in the photo. The lower front diff bushing in the ES kit is super thin and there is barely any clearance between the diff and the lower bracket. I found a clear mark where my diff was hitting the lower bracket. You can use a different bushing or washer to add a little clearance, see if this fixes your problem. I ended up going with different front diff bushings, but plenty happy with the rear diff ES bushings, as well as ES subframe bushings.
