Do you have some clunks or thumps from the rear end? Does the feel of the car change wildly with turns or acceleration/braking transitions? Are you still relying on the 20 year old rubber in the bushings that keep the rear suspension attached to your car? Change out your rear subframe bushings, the easy way, with this tool set.
I put this tool together when I changed my rear sub-frame bushings, and they made the job a breeze. Don't waste time pulling your entire subframe out of your car, when you can replace the bushings in literally minutes!
These cups, coupled with a threaded rod and nuts/washers, allows you to change your rear subframe bushings without removing the subframe from the car, cutting them out, or burning out the rubber.
Basically, I did the same thing as this diy, with the addition of the smallest cup that I filed down and notched to fit between the dimples when pulling the bushing out. If your bushing is entirely torn, than a washer will only pull out the center, but not the press fit sleeve. This small cup pulls them both out together.
Also, the middle and small cup can be used to press a new factory style bushing back in.
I am not including the threaded rod, since it will cost more to ship them than they cost at home depot.
Buy these 3 pieces, add $10 in hardware from your local hardware store, and change your worn out rear subframe bushings in a matter of minutes. Then, when you are done, sell them again to get your money back.
You owe it to yourself to make an otherwise PITA job a breeze!
