Great to hear. I’ve read extensively from Malek@MRF about replacing these bushings to solid. However, I’m quite skeptical. Possibly, in the future if I feel the need to upgrade and too much time on my hands, I’ll have them replaced with solid bushings. For now, I’ll stick to 80a poly bushings. Thanks for taking the time to reply. |

I want to upgrade my subframe and diff bushings, and am very mechanically inclined. I just don't know if I have the time to do this.

Also, I recommend you recheck the torque soon after installation. I rechecked mine after a week of driving and all 4 had loosened slightly. I will continue to check periodically and before every track day. As Roastbeef once said "Some settling may occur."

But I wasn't in a hurry and most of that time was spent cleaning parts prior to reassembly. I saw how clean jvictormp got his subframe, so I felt the inspiration to do the same. If you have a friend to help with dropping the subframe out of the car, access to a hydraulic press, and help with reloading the subframe back onto the car, I think one weekend is realistic.

I don't think the differential bolts are a must, but the TTY bolts felt necessary to me.

Thanks for taking the time. This was helpful. I’ve got al the bolts apart from one. I’ve been looking up the diagrams but I can’t seem to find the V-brace bolts (p/n 33306760752). Pardon my lack of knowledge on the subject. I haven’t put the car on stands yet, probably will be clearer when I do.

There are two Item 6 on the drawing though, not very clear, so I bought the longer ones.
