Should I replace the rear bushings when I get my diff/axle fixed?
My axle broke and killed my diff the other day. The car is at mazda and I found the replacement parts, but how easy will it be for Mazda to replace the bushings while it's in there? I really want to get them done, but I don't want to end up paying an extra six hours labour or anything. How easy?
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!

Depends on the nature of the work they are doing
What do you mean by "Killed the diff"? If they have to rebiuld it, they should be using new bearings anyway. But if you'd like to provide your own, go for it.

I read bearings instead of bushings. Sorry about that.
They have to drop the rear subframe to get the diff in and out, so no, its really not that much more trouble to pop in new bushings (depending on where)
