Default Leaky rear diff mount?

Just noticed my driverside was leaking... Which also explains the odd smell back in March as it covered the exhaust.

I'd like to swap it out before Vegas. Anybody have any tips? Seems the be a pretty easy task from what I've read so far.

On a positive note I thought my tranny mount/motor mounts were bad because of the shake when idle dips. After putting the car up and watching underneath it looks like it's just the exhaust somewhere.

Two liquid filled mounts on each side of the differential. Just like motor mounts.

Didn't realize they were hydraulic, going to have to get rid of them now.

Pretty straight forward, I did mine about a year ago. IIRC you might need to remove the RSB to gain access to them. You might just try the diff collars instead though..
