Rear Axle Beam mount/carrier replacement

Hi folks, just wondering the easiest way to replace this bush on an A4 B8 Quattro TDI.Will the rear diff need to come off or is there away to raise the diff enough to insert bush. My current bush has split at the top.

thanks I’m advance,Jim

I think it'll need removing. You changing both sides?

Hi, thanks so much for reply, Ill just be replacing this one. It bolts to the underneath of rear diff. Have you any experience of replacing this particular bush?

Thanks, Jim
