You have to love fresh suspension. The PO of my X5 replaced the controls arms and such with febi units about 20k ago. They still look good so I don't have much reason to tear into it. I might do subframe bushings if I decide to do coilovers.


I have heard from a lot of people that their pin was frozen so they couldn't get the carrier out. I assumed it would be, but I was able to pop it up and out with just my thumb. So lucky and it was so much easier than my E30s where you have basically zero room and cannot see it. I havent actually driven it yet. I am not expecting perfection as the carrier it's self is pretty sloppy.

It looks like the E39 has a similar carrier where it connects to the trans. Does anyone known of their oval derlin bushings will work? I also need to figure out what to do about that upper bushings for the carrier.
