I test drove an EA Spack 5 speed with worn bushes, everytime you let the clutch out it felt like the diff was jumping to the side. Though you might not be able to feel that with the auto.
Ye thats kinda what it feels like with mine, when im driving and i take me foot off the acelerater and when putting it back on it feels like the diff wants to fall out, is there anyway i can see its my bushes by just looking at it?

Upper or lower?
you can jack the rear up and take the wheel off, thst way you can see the trailing arms.
i got a quote last week to get my upper arms replaced, it was $130 including fitting, thats for a change over arm.
The lower ones where done two years ago, or about $200.
im not exactly sure what trailing arms bushes are stuffed, my car just seems to feel as if the diff is gonna fall out when i accelerate or decelerate, it also has a clunk when i back off then put my foot back on.
