Hi
I am having some problems re installing my rear subframe after I had the 034 billet subframe mounts installed.

Can get the bolts on one side to start but the bolts on the other side womt align.

Any suggestions or ideas?

Cheers

Hay m8 how did you go with this. I have just bought the whole rear setup from 034.  Lower the rear subframe on bolts support it though, put it all in loose then do it all up it should be right. Cant really mess it up inless the subframe is bent/cracked somewere:) in chch if you need help

Hi,
You need to completely remove subframe because you need to press the factory bushes out and press the billet in.  I had subframe painted at the same time.

I am having issues reinstalling, I think because the billet mounts don't the play (gap) as the factory mounts.  Basically the subframe needs to be all aligned jam in the bolts, but that's easily said then down when the car is on jack stands.

I will hope to have another go this weekend. Let you know how I go.
