Once up, replace the extension rods, one by one with the original attachment bolt and lower retaining plate. Be sure to put the lower bushing retaining plates with the rubber pads on the rear bushings. Once all are original attachment bolts are reinstalled, check again to ensure the car is solid on the jack stands before tightening the bolts.

Reattach the self leveling connections back onto the sensors. Reattach the wheelwell clips to the bushing lower plate. It was a good time to clean the inside of the style 5's again while they were off the Tour. The emulsion liquid on the bushings needs hours to set. Jase recommended to let it set overnight, so I'll test drive it tomorrow morning.

Good time to clean the underbody. Tomorrow, I'll take the Tour for a short spin before we work on the next Tour. It will be interesting to see what type of handling and ride change it will make. The front two were cracked both top and bottom and the rear bushings were cracked in the bottom. My it only had 81k miles. New bushing on left, one of the busted ones on the right Mileage seems to be indifferent as far as bushing damage. I wonder if they actually fail closer to 60k miles than 80k.

On my test drive, I notice swifter response to throttle pedal inputs. I mean, it feels like the rear end of the Tour is sticking so much better than before with no hesitation.

We reasoned that when the bearings wear out, on accelleration, it would allow the rear suspension to pivot for the travel of the damaged bushing before the the body set. Definately a more solid feel and setting up for a turn no longer has a hesitation or shifting feel to it. The rear end definately feels more planted. I didn't have any noise associated with the bushings. Dinan E39 did have some body ratteling noise which was eliminated with this fix.

For me, it is a noticable improvement, similar to the experience of replacing my rear shocks a few weeks ago. Update: It poured rain today, it was a DSC kind of day. I had a 45 mile sprint each way to take care of a chore. The Tour was much more planted and stable through both legs. On the return trip, I followed some wet twisties home and the Tour's stability was definately noticible. The Tour is more neutral. This was not a difficult DIY at all, thanks to the really cool bushing tool and great instructions by jase He's got the better DIY.

My install by myself took 5 hours. Dinan E39, Mike and I knocked his off in 2. I encourage anyone who has the knocking or loosness in their Tour to take this DIY on. Brake system overhaul next Well done. Looks great! You really should consider sending the link of this write-up to David Cecil www.

Now that is a how to write up. Admin, please sticky this in the DIY! Originally Posted by Qsilver7. Originally Posted by teedub Originally Posted by jase Lets hear your drive report!

I can't wait until I do mine I've been putting it off.. I think it will be time.

Great write up. Awesome job. Looking forward to the test drive report. Another amazing DIY! Is the special tool the same used on the sedans for removing the subframe bushings? Thanks Jason.

I would imagine the extra torque of the V8 and diesels wears the bushes out even quicker than the six cylinders models.

The wagons have that big larger diameter section below the subframe, and that is what makes the tool unique. Question then is, what happens when you put sedan bushings in a touring? No, bad bushings wouldn't cause the car to sag unevenly, unless something's really messed up. The four subframe bolts are in tension, and the big washer on the bottom of them is basically a snubbing washer. It doesn't normally do anything, but limits travel when the car hits a bump.

My suggestion for your homework assignment would be: look at the gap above the subframe washer, for each of the four places. Are they even, left-right? Now, try to measure the distance from the top of the subframe bushing to the body of the car. Enter your email address below and instructions to reset your password will be emailed to you.
