Subframe Bushing Replacement & Tool rent in The Netherlands
 

Hello guys

I am planning to replace my subframe bushings but I can't find the tool here in the Netherlands

maybe you will know where I can find it ? Or can I borrow one of you guys and of course i will pay for the rent

and secondly, what shall I purchase the HD from Ebay or the original ones what are the experiences?

Thank u very much

There's one available in the UK for rent through eBay BMW x5 E53 Rear Subframe Bush Tool Rent 7 Days | eBay

The shipping cost listed on the auction is pretty high, but if you read the INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING NOTE the guy explains his situation with PayPal; "If you pay by any other method, I will reduce the shipping cost to a sensible level." I'd be happy to rent you mine, but shipping from here would be, um, really expensive.

thx for the offer but i think that will be very costly and i wil check the ebay link out

but it occurred to me that I can let one made for allmost the same price is it possible to get the measurements and some pictures of the parts ?

and I'm not planning to sell or rent it afterwards :)

thx

Where are you from in the Netherlands? Area of Rotterdam?

no I live in Amsterdam are you familiar with the Netherlands ? Ow ik zie het al jij bent in nederland :) heb jij misschien zo een tool dat ik kan huren ?

I rented the tool from a member in Denver, I believe. Don't remember his tag off the top of my head but he required a paypal payment in the amount of the tool purchase price. He refunded the rent and returned the balance when he got the tool back. The rent was for 7 days from arrival and additional cost for every day beyond 7 days until he received the return. Tool works great. I wouldn't try the job without it though I have seen utube posts that do. Installation would be easy if you purchase the 2 piece poly bushing but they are pricey. Perhaps you could buy the tool and offer it for rent there. I purchased the ball joint removal tool and sold it to my source and now he rents that also. Search this site for subframe bushings replacement. He posted a great DIY with pictures. Just remembered member is Daveintosh. There is post by X5 girl that also shows the process.
