[urq] Pressing in a new rear diff mount?

True about the offset.  Brandon check my project thread on MG.  It shows the proper orientation of the bushing to achieve the correct offset.

If your using the 034 unit (Which is centered like the 90q/Cq mounts) in an early housing I"m curious if you will have any issues getting it to line up well.
