Default Max from Creative Steel is officially the CTS-V Doctor

I just finished replacing the stock gummy bear diff mount bushing in the V with a CS gray piece and it substantially helped the clunk noise. I know people allready know that this is a must for the V but the tool that he has to remove the old one and install the new one is where I was impressed.

I could not imagine doing this job without the tool. All I had to remove 3 bolts that hold the diff housing in the car, then just press out the old, press in the new one one put it all back together.

His customer service is also A+ and I would recommend him to anybody. Us V owners are truly blessed that he has a V himself and has addressed the problems with his knowledge and skill and came out with the Creative Steel products.

Does he send the Tool with the bushing, then you just return the tool after the install?

Yeah, he just started doing this in May I think. You have to pay $20 bucks to borrow the tool and there is a deposit to make sure it is returned, but again it is well worth it.

Where do you find out what products they have? Do they have a website or anything like that?

It will be nice if people actually return his removal/installation tools. I used to loan them out and I lost my *** on them. I guess the $50 deposit I was charging wasn't enough for people to bother to return them.

Funny I sold (passed along for the same price) your tool you sold me and then ended up needing it again! Oh well after some hacksaw and punch action the grey one was out. BTW Why the different S/N over here? More friendly?

I got around to installing my rear diff bushing and trans mount yesterday, and the car feels so much better, the clunk noise is GONE. Great products.
