sdotmac 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2015 Hi - Does anyone have an E39 Touring subframe-bush removal tool I can rent for cash/beers? My 1997 E39 rear subframe bushes are shot and the nice BMW man suggests it'll be around $1500 bucks to sort. I'm comfy with the DIY and from what I can make out the interweb can supply Lemforder replacements for a lot less than the $275+ per corner quoted. Also - looks like a simple job (like all eventual 8 week repair odyssey's) - has anyone done this & are there any gotcha's? Cheers, Shane PS- - first time posting - found then lost a tools thread. Please move this post/put me straight as necessary! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
