Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Subframe Mount Bushing fits the 2015-2016 BMW 228i xDrive 2 Series. The kit contains 8 bushings, 4 tubes, an install guide, and grease. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. Whiteline part number: KDT917.
Rubber subframe mounts compress and stretch every time the car loads up, and the subframe moves with them. Reducing that lost motion tends to show up as steadier tracking and a more immediate rear end in corners.
Installation is rated difficult, with about 4 hours of work listed. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the 228i xDrive 2 Series, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Rear Lower Trailing Arm Bushing, and Rear Differential Mount Bushing.
Features
- Bushing material: Made of polyurethane, which resists deflection better than soft rubber.
- Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
- Finish: The metal parts are powder coated for durability.
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Install guide: Written install instructions are included with the part.
