Rear end bushings?
A while back I bought a master bushing kit from energy suspension. The guy I had replaced "all" of the kit but the box still has more in it. I noticed the rear end has two bushings coming off the truss looking thing that are shot... does anyone know if my kit would come with those bushings? If not, what is the rear end truss name so I can contact energy suspension and ask them.
Thank you!
Thank you!

You didn't mention what year your car is but on later C3's it's called a 'batwing'; it's aluminum and has a girder-like appearance and is an integral part of the differfential case. On the earlier cars (pre-1980 I believe) there is a steel, separate crossmember that is called a...you guessed it...rear crossmember or differential mount.

Okay, solved.
Contacted energy suspension and told them "batwing" guy was able to talked to someone who knew... the part I am looking for is the Differential Carrier Bushing Set... The Corvette Differential Pinion Mount Grommet Set is what comes with the kit I ordered.
Thanks
