Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Subframe Mount Bushing fits the 2014-2016 BMW 228i 2 Series. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. In the box: 8 bushings, 4 tubes, an install guide, and grease. Order it as part number KDT917.
The rear subframe is the cradle that the rear suspension arms bolt to, and the car is attached to it through rubber mounts that are soft on purpose. That softness lets the subframe shift under hard cornering or acceleration, which dulls the feel of the rear end. A firmer bushing set holds the subframe in position, so the rear responds more directly to steering and throttle.
Installation is rated difficult, with about 4 hours of work listed. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Sway Bar Link Assembly, and Rear Lower Trailing Arm Bushing for the 228i 2 Series.
Features
- Corrosion protection: Plated finish keeps rust off the hardware.
- Self-lubricating: Internal grease reservoirs keep the bushing lubricated as it works.
- Install guide: An install guide comes in the box.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane bushings flex far less than rubber ones.
- Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
- Finish: The metal is powder coated, which resists corrosion and wear.
