Hendrix diff Bushings

I ordered some offset diff bushings for my 2012 ss, its at stock height I just head it takes the strain off the axles. i got Diff bushings and cradle bushings to stop the wheel hop, the only thing is my car is at stock ride height on stock suspension. Can I still put in the offset diff bushings or does my car have to be lowered.

Off set Bushings should help both lowered and standard ride cars, you will be fine.

Yes you can, and should. If you pop your head under the car while it's on the ground you'll see the axles are already traveling upwards from the diff to the hubs - the diff bushings will help reduce that angle. Straight is most ideal for the CV shaft, or even just ever so slightly with the hub side lower than the diff, so that during travel they straighten out.
