Mounting Trailing arms after IE subframe bushings.

So you didn't have to lower the subframe? Interesting.... I'll be doing this job soon enough. How long did each side take you?

Each side took me about 4hrs total..(from unbolting to bolting up everything)

I had the same problem on a similar install using AKG's urethane eccentric adjusters. I am usually extremely handy and patient. It took me the major part of a whole day to line up the holes, bolts and nuts. That's about 1.5hr per mounting point...

I don't recommend urethane eccentric and would rather use the slotted metal adjusters. They are cheaper to buy, and will cost much less to install, while offering tons more adjustment.

What he said. Mine keep shifting. Created major problems on the crack. The horrible alignment cost me at least 2 seconds.

I'm getting the toe/camber kits. Forget eccentrics.
I'm also having the shop do it. ONLY because they have to weld on the toe/camber kit. If not, I would do it myself, like on my other cars.
P.S. I did it once on the E30, we removed the fuel hose. PITA. On my E28, I'm lowering the whole subframe, POR 15, assemble, mount as one.
