AKG Performance Parts for BMW
BMW Rear Subframe and Diff Bushing Set, Poly 75D – E36 318ti, Z3
Product Description
This BMW E36 (318ti), Z3 Polyurethane (75D) Rear Subframe and Differential Mount Bushing Set virtually eliminates subframe and differential movement for effective power transfer through the rear-end to the wheels. Rear subframe bushings are also the first step in maintaining proper rear-end geometry and alignment. The stock rubber subframe and differential bushings deflect as torque moves through the drivetrain, allowing the entire assembly to move. Virtually eliminate rear subframe movement and allow your diff to operate effectively with our BMW E36 (318ti), Z3 poly 75d rear subframe and differential bushing set.
These extremely hard, race-spec 75D durometer polyurethane BMW Z3/318ti subframe / diff mount bushings are the hardest available (aside from solid aluminum). They are the best option for race classes where solid bushings are not allowed, or for those who do not wish to deal with the issues that may arise when using solid metal bushings. This is the proper durometer for high horsepower and/or big grip cars. Remember: the material used for the diff mount bushing location(s) must match the material used for the subframe bushings.
About Our 75D Polyurethane
Our U.S. Military Spec 75D durometer compound is as hard as a bowling ball, yet has elasticity and memory. This exclusive compound allows us to manufacture a bushing that has virtually the same performance as a solid bushing, but without the harshness on the chassis associated with solid metal bushings. Likewise, its elasticity and memory means they are also free from deformation which plastic bushings (Delrin, UHMW) are very prone to.
AKG bushings are the only aftermarket bushings for BMW molded in the USA in accordance to ISO 9001:2015 certified standards – the gold standard in manufacturing. Our exclusive polyurethane raw stock costs up to 5x that of the cheap generic poly and plastic used by others. It is formed with our very own precision molds through a meticulous, state of the art molding process – providing the quality, reliability and consistent performance our parts are known for. Read why our polyurethane bushings are the highest quality bushings available.
