lol that sounds like such a cop out. You're not doing it because of the outside heat. Boy you better get off your ass and upgrade that bimmer

lol

For the solid subframe bushings, are you supposed to grease the hole before sliding the bolts back in?

Weyne Masters · 06-23-2016, 08:13 PM

No grease

Rassilon · 06-23-2016, 09:01 PM

What did you do to protect that gap in subframe when pressing in the solid bushings? It seems yours is a bit warped?

roastbeef · 06-28-2016, 05:33 AM

yea, in that first pic, the bracket seems a bit pinched.

atopa2002 · 06-28-2016, 07:11 PM

what did you use to press the solid bushings in ?
a press or you knocked it with a wood and hammer

would like to know if it can be done with the subframe still on the car

thanks
john

Weyne Masters · 06-28-2016, 10:00 PM

It should be done by especial tool,and also you should remove from car!

Rassilon · 06-29-2016, 02:23 AM

any noticeable improvements?

Longboarder · 06-30-2016, 12:46 AM

Very nice. I didn't do the diff bushings because I have a DCT and it's very loud. But my MRF subframe bushings make no noise and had a nice improvement in launching the car and also the rear is more planted around corners the track.

Turner recommends grease when pressing in the subframe bushings. I used a stack of thin 1" diameter washers to fill the gap when pressing in the subframe bushings which worked well. I had issues getting the stock diff bushings out with a bearing puller. I ended up putting the subframe sideways in my 12 ton press with the cross bar passing through the center of the subframe. It was a little bit of work to properly postion and support it for vertical placement of the bushings, but the diff bushings easily pressed out.

3.2 there you go. This car can launch hard. Just needs bushings and good tires. Speaking of tires, which ones are you using and what is your launch method?
