Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Subframe Mount Bushing fits the 2014-2016 BMW 328i GT xDrive 3 Series (F34). The listing names the xDrive 3 Series trim. It is listed for the F34 chassis. Part number KDT917. The kit contains 8 bushings, 4 tubes, an install guide, and grease. This part is for the rear of the vehicle.
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.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 4 hours. An alignment is required after installation. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit, and Rear Lower Trailing Arm Bushing for the 328i GT.
Features
- Corrosion protection: Metal parts are plated to resist rust over the long term.
- Finish: The metal is powder coated, which resists corrosion and wear.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease comes with it for a longer service life.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane bushings flex far less than rubber ones.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
