I agree on both the RSF and diff moving. I'm thinking about going with the solid RSF bushings that Jake used but also going with the aluminum diff bushings as I don't think the poly bushings and diff lock down is the correct solution as the front of the diff moves a lot and don't won't to put that stress on the 2 diff cover bolt holes the diff brace uses. I'd be interested in seeing a similar video of what Jake's RSF and diff looks like under acceleration and braking.
