Replaced rear subframe bushings yesterday. Finally, no more squeaks! Old bushings completely separated.

Was an easy job with the right tool wasn't it? She feels tighter from the rear end now as well, I definitely noticed a difference on mine, and mine all separated when I replaced them at 75k last year

Yes, piece of cake with the right extractor tool. And noticeable improvement. This was the last job before it goes in for a 4 wheel alignment.

6 week project to refresh all of the wearable suspension and steering components. At 150k miles, the subframe bushes were loooong overdue.

Traded in the CEO's 2004 E46 to get a new playmate for my E53!

She's now very happy with her 2014 F36 in Mineral Gray, Premium, Sport Line, NAV & Harman Kardon Sound. Which means I did good.

Thanks my friends.
