BMW Rear Subframe Bushing DIY - Polyurethane Bushings
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лип 2024
- In this video I am going to walk you guys through how to remove and replace your rear subframe bushings on your BMW E30 WITOUT removing the entire rear subframe. Keep in mind that the process that I show here is NOT the official, BMW recommended way to do it. I am using no press/puller, and hand tools only. This is intended to be an addition to the already existing wealth of information out there on this procedure, as well as compliment the many excellent videos on UA-cam that cover this process.
Please be careful when working on cars by yourself, especially when doing something that requires a lot of force to remove parts when on jackstands/jacks.
As always, happy wrenching!

Your vid was extremely helpful, I found a way to remove the old bushings. I put a 30mm deep socket between the bussing and the car, then put the floor jack under the subframe lifting the car off the stand. Then heated the housing. Old bushing came loose and fell on the floor. Thanks again for your vid.
Interesting way of replacing them. I removed my entire rear and cleaned up the subframe and welded in adjustable camber/toe tabs.
Yeah I will actually be taking out the subframe this winter for that same reason. But not everyone does that, hence I figured it could be helpful to some to show it done this way
Good to see another vid! Looking forward to more e28 content
Another dope video as always 🤙
Wish nobody helps you, i was hoping for Mat to keep doing videos with you
Garage once failed my E30's MoT due to bad subframe bushings. So I went down, we went under the car and I showed them not just that the bushings were OK but the four digit production date said they were 10 months old and I'd done them. Trying to rip me off! Never went back.
Film the land cruiser please

no PTFE grease put on the bushings? isn't it going to squeak like crazy?
man this is a total 180 compared to my experience. The top of the huge bolts had this caulk type stuff on the top of them, all of that had to be dug out before I could even knock the bolts up/out. After that I had to drop everything out, and the metal sleeves in the bushings both snapped as they welded/corroded themselves to the body. I had to drill and grind all the remnants out, and only then could I bring everything back up. What a mess.
Sounds like a crazy experience. I’ve seen these go wrong in all sorts of ways as well, luckily I didn’t have too many issues. But yes no grease needed on these there is next to no movement in these bushings
Why are there old French plates in the background ?
No grease on those poly bushings! About to be Squeak City Euros!
The rear subframe bushings don’t move enough to squeak, I know from experience
I don’t think these need to be lubed up, there is very little, if any, movement in those bushings. At least they didn’t come with any lube unlike their trailing arm bushings which do come with lube.
@@SaltCityEuros I agree
Ein Feedback, wenn du wieder auf der Straße bist, würde mich interessieren. Beste Grüße aus Rosenheim, mach weiter so! 👍🏻
weld on a nut on backside of bolt to be able to continue the broken bolt thru.
What do you mean by that? Can you explain more? Thanks!
@@SaltCityEuros I see some of the threaded rod protruding from the backside. I would see if you could attach a nut on the backside, then weld the nut and broken bolt so you could pull it out from the backside.
Good idea, I will need to try that in the future. First I need to learn to weld
@@SaltCityEuros if you have a friend with a mig welder.
Great video as usual!
You need to fix your rusty jacking point tho, jack point collapse is NOT funny
I have some welding ahead of me that’s for sure
Why no centre caps man?
I don’t like the look of the wheels with them, they are kinda cheesy looking. But then again, I guess it doesn’t look super sleek without them either.... dilemma 🤔
@@SaltCityEuros How about blacking them out then putting them back on?
Ich musste auf die 4 Schrauben nochmal Schrauben aufschweißen, dann gingen sie einfach raus 😉
