Quick subframe question!!

[isolatos]

I got the subframe out, do I have to remove the metal sleeve that the stock bushing fits into> it looks totally rusted in there. I am just not sure if its part of the original bushing. Thanks

Yes. There is an aluminum sleeve with a flange on the bottom. It is part of the original bushing.

Thanks. I figured it out after holding the new bushings up to the subframe. I am doing all the bushings, new control arms, brake and fuel lines, emergency brake rebuild, bilstein sports, h&r sports, e92 drophats, rear strut mounts, and braided brake lines. I swear this is more work than the M50 I did over the winter!

Going with OEM bushings?
