Is there a replacement bushing used when replacing the rear end drive gear as well as for the right differential case? None is shown in the parts manual.

Bushing? On the R&P?

There are bearings and races, for the pinion gear as well as in the axle housing for the carrier. No bushing in the rear axle I am aware of at this time.

The Timkens are available but the one on the pinion tip is a bit harder to source of good quality (18-4625-A). The differential spider gears don't have bushings since their movement is more limited. Repair bushings for the wheel hub bearing races are available but they are not easy to fit.
