Condor Speed Shop E36 subframe installation instructions

Please note that you do not need to use any grease or lubrication when installing any of our UHMW bushings. Make sure the subframe is clean and dry. Keep the aluminum inserts inside of the lower subframe bushing when pressing them in. Use a rubber mallet to set them in place.

• All Aluminum inserts press upwards into the bushing from the bottom.
• All lower bushings have OEM washer silhouette shape.
• Reuse OEM washers.
• Front bushings have smallholes and a recess for stockchassis studs.
• Rear bushings have large holes.


When Installing the differential bushings, the front diff bushing should be installed from the front of the subframe towards the back, with the flanged end pointing towards the front of the car.

Hey I bought e36 rear subframe bushings about 2 years ago (give or take) and got flat washers – looked about the same as the Rtab bushing spacers, black and round. Well, I just got another set for another car and they have recesses for the OEM washers. Question is – am I crazy? Did you guys make two different revisions? Thanks!
