what should the large dogbone bushing look like?

[bassthrive]

Can someone please confirm the larger dogbone (aka torque damper) black rubber bushing is connected at four points along its circumference or by two?

I cant upload a picture of mine yet because my host is down. My bushing is only attached at the top and bottom. There is a larger gap on the side towards the front of the car. Is this broken and should I replace it? Would it be easier to press in a new bearing or to completely replace the whole dogbone with one from a salvage yard? I do not want polyurethane bushings, oem rubber is fine.

It was connected by three points on mine and yes its normal to have a larger gap at the front, Mines was the same way, although I'm automatic, the manual and automatic ones only differ slightly. If you have the patience, you could press in a new one, but its difficult to get the old one out. Some people end up burning the rubber out with a torch. I custom made my poly-urethane dogbone bushing using 3m injectible, mold-able polyurethane.

^^ Yeah.
Two points is right. Maybe they redesigned the bushing to have three points for the Gen 1.5?
I replaced mine with the poly ones. But you should be alright running what you've got.
