    E30 M3 HD Rear Subframe Bushing Washers

    Hey R3V-

    I had a few sets of E30 M3 HD rear subframe bushing washers made. These help spread the load and stabilize stock rear subframe bushings without going to a stiffer poly bushing.

    $40 shipped CONUS.

      i'll be doing my rear bushings soon. I'm trying to picture how this seats on the bushing. Does it go between the top of the bushing and where it meets the chassis? Educate me a bit, thanks!

        and the M cars are a multiplier

        regular repair Money * 3 = M3
        regular repair Money * 5 = M5
        regular repair Money * 6 = M6

          Same, I am curious as to how these are installed and work.

            These washers replace the stock rear subframe bushing washers and help spread the clamping load/force over a wider surface on the bushing. Common upgrade on other cars, but for some reason, no one made them for the E30 yet.

                  If I remember right, the E30 M3 used the thicker washer.

                    You are correct. One of the cool, smaller differences the M3 received.

                    BMW gets about $50ea for them.
