Sub frame bushing replacement

Ok now that the sub frames are taken care of paint wise, now is time for the bushing. In the picture above are aluminum bushings from 034 motorsports. *Before* taking anything apart on the vehicle put these in the freezer(like the one you use for foods :P) for at LEAST 2 hours. Mine have been in the freezer for well over a month.

Due to laws of matter the molecules in matter get closer when the temperature is lower. Thus the bushings get smaller. after this you can put them in the sub sub frame, should still be a tight fit. If it is hard to push in, just use a rubber mallet and gently hammer it in. Like so.

After fitting all of the bushing in the holes and hammering them down I then clamped them and let them sit over night.

 

 However after this this there appears to be one set of bushings that don't seat properally and fell out, I will make another post when I figure out how I am going to remedy this situation.

To be continued 

These are some new products that I got, all of which mount to the subframe, the control arms are OE.
 Those red rods are suspension tie rods from 034motorsport.com better and cheaper then stock so that is a score.

These are the transmission/differential mounts, track density, and the things in the other bags are delrin control arm bushings both also from 034motorsport

I started to paint the sub frames after scraping off loose rust, which wasn't much, and paint i then cleaned it with Eastwood's "Pre" worked great, then put on Rust encapsulator.

  These are the sub frames after I sprayed a chassis paint on them.
The sub frame in the back holds the differential and the sub frame in the front holds the transmission.

These are the two products I used on the sub frames, both from Eastwood.com and very good products.
Spread very easy and bonded to existing paint very well.
