- After having this Z32 chassis for a few years now and it overall being 30 years old, things tend to fail and need replacing. Well this nissan 300zx needed its Rear subframe bushings swapped out. So I ordered some energy suspension bushings to complete the job! This how to video is simply for the people what wrench on their cars alone and with minimal tools.

Probably the best subframe bushing removal and replacement video I've seen! Great content buddy. Thanks for taking the extra time to make sure everyone can see what you are doing. I'm currently knee deep in a clutch replacement +++ it's been a great having your video to help me walk through the whole process. Keep it up!
Love the support and thank you! Keep up the good work and good luck with the build!
Great info!! Thank you for all your work putting these vids together. Ive tried it before and its very time consuming! 😂 your effort is much appreciated
I need to do this to get my gas tank out, so, I figured it is an opportune time to replace the bushings, thank you for the vid, I’ll probably watch it 10 times 👍
Just finished doing this exact thing, such a pain. Took me a few days to knock this out!
You always post videos about the projects I’m thinking about the day after I think about them! Perfect timing 😂😂
😂😂 love it!
@@ZBruhzchannel also, long wheel base gang for life! Love me a 2+2 Z never getting rid of mine
This also applies to the 350z and 370z. Good time to go ahead and do this!
Great to know!!
And 240's
Any Nissan at this point😂
Let us know if you like the polys once you get some seat time. Just put some Z1 solid bushings and haven't had a chance to test them out yet. They were a pain in the ass to install.
Amazingly executed
I hated replacing the bushings for the differential. I didn’t want to drop the subframe so I ended up pressing it out by finding something like a socket of the same size and pushed it out by ratcheting the shit out of it. I put one wrench to hold it in place, and used another wrench to press it out. And then I burned the rubber off the bushings lol.
If you feel like speeding up the prices if you get a 15$ set of drill bits and drill out the rubber it takes about 3 minutes instead of burning them out much quicker!
Yea I didn't buy a new set and didn't want to ruin my set haha. That goop gets everywhere
Super helpful video. Hopefully I won’t need to do this any time soon!
How do you know all of this? I think we'd love a historical video! Very cool video!
Youre NOT supposed to take the sleeves out on energy suspension bushings. You reuse them and push the new rubber into those sleeves. You burn them out and reuse the sleeves
Haven't had an issue yet, and still needed to use a rubber mallet to press them in
Made a huge difference on my z, but I'm not happy with the energy suspension diff bushings. I think it made my diff sit at an angle so when I put the bolt back in on the diff brace it stripped that nut that's inside the subframe. I did end up getting a new subframe that had good bushings for the diff but when I replace them I will use whiteline
Aww, sorry to hear that! Hopefully the next Ines treatment you better!
great video how similar is the removal process on a 2+0?
Pretty much the same thing!
Where do you get that kit ,please
Ebay or Amazon or private sale, z1 motorsports or concept z performance
I did this job on my brothers s14...it was hell
Definitely time consuming and not enjoyable, but the feeling of accomplishment after was great!
@@ZBruhzchannel hell yeah brother. the rear end felt way better too...pause
If you don't mind me asking where did you get your harness bar from?
Cipher auto!
@@ZBruhzchannel thanks!

I'm thinking it's time for a lift!!😁
If only I had the space and money hahah
nice
💪👍💯
Nice z bro you're getting better work on Z32 by yourself. I'm also polishing my skills. Thanks for sharing using petroleum jelly. also works great to bleed the brakes. when doing it yourself when using a vacuum pump. Wish we can chill one day I know you're from Massachusetts and I'm from New York we're not that far away maybe we can meet up in the middle somewhere in Connecticut. Do you have a Instagram?
Thank you for the support! And my insta is @z_bruhz
