Henn28, if you find the tool you are looking for, make sure to post it up here. I am planning to do rear subframe bushings but would like to do the rear diff bushings and a few others too. I would prefer to find a tool set that can handle them all without removing the subframe and differential.

Willdo...but no luck yet. It seems that there is definitely a bmw special tool, or perhaps two, for the diff bushings. There are two different sizes of bushings in the diff, a larger diameter one and two smaller diameter pieces. Or maybe I have that reversed.
I ordered the Lemforder kit from FCP and am hopeful a rental autozone bushing kit will take care of business. Of note there is a lubricant BMW calls for on these bushings, which Bentley refers to as "Circolight". Alternatively, it seems like some guys just use regular anti-seize. I'll try to get the specific stuff if its not too expensive.
Did a bit more work on the diff today and will update the overland thread.
