    Man those rims....perfectly Saab.
    Hope to find another set for my combi soon!
    Floridian tip: If it is headed there, make sure the T-Stat, radiator/overflow cap and hoses are fresh with new coolant and pump(if over 100k miles on it). Lots of car fires along the florida roads due to overheating. Should be an awesome FL car!

    But the new big golden washer is supposed to go on top of the bushing against the body, but seems to work okay anyways. But it should go between the bushing and the frame/body 😁

    I'm in NJ, have a Saab 9 5 I think it's 04. Definitely have a rattle on the passenger side somewhere in the front. From watching your videos I am sure the car needs new bushings even if that isn't the issue. Wish I was as handy as you and had all the tools to do it myself

    How have the Pro Parts Sweden bushings been holding up for you? I've had too many of their parts fail too quickly, so I grabbed the Powerflex ones for the sway bars, torque rod, and subframe. It was a premium cost vs the PPS ones, but I just didn't trust them.

  • @jonasstridh6839

    Cut the bushings in half so you do not have to push them in place! More expensive bushings of another brand are divided from factory!

    Just saw on another video where he cuts the bushings in half and puts in each half from top and bottom, the compression keeps the 2 halves together once installed. About to try it, thanks for these vids, will report back on how the cut method works out.

    • @wudecki
      @wudecki 2 місяці тому

      Have not seen the video myself but if one cuts the bushing in half without placing washers on either sides, it's a matter of time until they fall out in my opinion

      @Slowmowlawnandhome 2 місяці тому

      @@wudecki Definitely have to put the washers on, the tightening of the washers on either side is why the hack works. You compress the bushing into itself, so a clean cut and lining it up is probably important. Haven't tried it myself though.

    Hi Kyle, we’re you getting a nasty vibration thru the steering wheel at idle when car is in any drive gear…but no vibration when is in park and or neutral? I am trying pin point if these subframe bushings solve this notorious Saab 9-5 vibration.

      Hi … not yet…but I ordered the 4 piece engine mount kit from europarts …just haven’t had the time to install them. I suspect it will be the rear engine mount that is allowing the vibration. My 9-5 only vibrates when stopped while in drive gear with foot on the brake pedal. I don’t think it the sub frame bushings. @@anyageorge4574

    I need to replace the bushings on my 2004 9-5. Are the polyurethane much better than original rubber bushings? Do they just last longer or are they better in other ways? Do you get the same level of comfort as new rubber bushings or does the car feel stiffer with polyurethane? How about squeaking? Thanks, Kyle, I enjoy your videos!

    • @KylePancis

      no squeaks! last for a much longer time... the car feels more direct and more confident on the road!

      I did a Polyflex swap about a year ago on one of my 9-5s (2004 Linear wagon). I also did an OEM rubber bushing replacement earlier this month on another of my 9-5s (2006 Wagon). The Polyflex were used for the four rear front bushings on my 2004. I dropped the subframe on my 2006 wagon and had a local shop press in the bushings. (I also did Bilstein shocks and struts on the 2004 and Sachs/Saab on the 2006.)
      My reason for doing the OEM instead of PolyFlex on the 2006 is that the ride is definitely tighter and somewhat louder with the Polyflex. If you want the great handling, go for it as it is definitely less time consuming than dropping the subframe. However, if you want more of the original ride, go with OEM all-around (bushings, struts, shocks). Dropping the subframe is not technically challenging, but laborious. The WIS is straight-forward about the process and other online resources are available as well.
      Note: Saabs can run a long time. Both the wagons have 150K and just made it 5000 miles in twelve days from NC to MT and back. Our 1999 9-5 did 1100 miles in one day with 302K on it and made it to 343K before sacrificing itself to protect my two teenagers who were hit on the front left wheel well by an evading driver going 100 mph. (A couple stitches needed for my son was the extent of the acute medical work.) We've got a 2002 9-5 Linear Sedan with 304K. Never shy away from higher mileage 9-5s. Keep them alive by watching Kyle's videos. . .and keep up the work, Kyle!

      @@Saabalive Thanks for sharing, Scott. I'm so glad your kids are okay! The 9-5 was, I believe, the safest car of its category when it came out. Probably still safer than many of the newer cars. Too bad it doesn't have side curtains, especially for rear passengers (front passengers have side airbags that protect the head).
      My 9-5 is a 2004 Arc sedan. It has about 90,000 miles, not that much for its age. I want it to handle well, but I want it to feel smooth, comfortable, and as silent as possible for road trips; we don't have the best roads up here where I live around Montreal, so going OEM on the bushings might be the way to go...
      If I understand correctly, you're saying Sachs are more comfy than Bilstein shock absorbers? What Bilsteins did you try, B4, B6, others?
