Whiteline is legit and they make quality parts.

Here's a write-up showing several different methods.

I have installed Whiteline bushings (including the rear differential bushing) and have been very satisfied with the improved performance.

I have installed the Z1 diff. bushings and they are working great as well. Have had them in for a short time, so I can't really speak to their longevity at this point.

I’ve replaced it,

Sadly it didn’t fix my clunking noise.

Bummer. To be certain, you replaced the bushing that holds the differential in place at the rear of the car? Here is mine with the "tear of death" before I replaced it. Did it look similar to this when you pulled it out?
