Subframe Bushings

so my 318 has been making a clunk noise for the past year. it had progressivly become worse, and i figured it was time to check it out.


turns out my rear subframe bushings are non existent. So...time to change.

I was thinking poly urethane, since im gonna be spending a days worth of labor to get them cahnged i might as well get better bushings. plu si fi ever track the car i would want to do this.


so...gotta check bushing prices. I was told i would pay around $100 a piece for oem. so 150 each for poly?


so yea, if you hear a clanking noise in the rear under acceleration or hard braking..time to check your rear subframe bushings.

btw anyone know where i can find poly subframe bushings? I know theres a Company who makes them cause i was looking at poly bushings earlier in the year, but i cant recall
