Default Rear diff bushing

How do you know if it needs to be replaced? And can somebody post a link of the one I should get ?

If you still have the factory bushing you should replace it with an aftermarket (creative steel?) type. It will go bad. Its a sure thing. (unless you never drive it hard)
As for how do you know when it goes bad, you will know by the loud thump everytime you get on or off the gas or shift gears.

Can you install this in a drive way? Or do you need special tools for this
