Need to change the rear subframe front bushes.
2000 W210 estate.
I can do jobs on the car-the major concern is getting the old ones out. I am stuck if I cant finish the job, as I need the car for work.
Just how hard are they to remove?
Cheers
Looking at Euro Car Parts and they list one as "rear subframe bush front right"
I think they are the same both sides, but they dont list a left side.
Can anyone confirm?
Thanks
As above really, my wagon has 175k, do people have a good supplier of OEM bushes or have poly bushes been used reliable? IE not wearing out quickly which I've experienced before..
I suppose I'll have to make some bush extractor tools also..
As you would imagine 14 years of sitting under a car in Cumbria no less all the rubber components on the suspension are staring to die soo
This is a perfect excuse to upgrade right?
And do polly bushes exist in the aftermarket and who sells them
Hi everyone new here need advice on my clk 270cdi needing to change front arb bushes but two people say that its a pain first one said they are to tight and scared to snap them other one said he wouldn't touch it how hard can it be :dk:
Had a winter safety check at Mercedes Giffnock today.
All seemed fine apart from the Thrust Arm Bushes which they tell me have split on both arms. They have given me a quote of £96.24 to carry out the work.
Is this a reasonable price ?.
Would it be possible to DIY the job myself or better to...
Quick question for our forum experts
Thought I'd quickly change the antiroll bar bushes this weekend.
Ordered a pair form GSF and they do not fit :wall bash:
My mounting brackets have a rib that fits in the rubber groves.
The ones sent by GSF "equivalent to 203 323 20 85" made by Vetech...
Hi,
Quick question, I need to replace the front lower suspension arm bush on one side of my 2003 CLK 320 W209.
I'm intending to pull/push the bushes out in situ and do both sides though it's only one that's broken.
Is there any way to do this without then having to get the camber checked...
I am going to replace the front camber and caster arm bushes and rear springs on my wife's W203 220CDi during the next couple of weeks - weather permitting! My question is, is there a torque setting for the bolts that pass through the bushes, if so, does anyone know what it is? I was going to...
I'm going to replace the bushes on the front ARB of my 2007 E class 320CDI, along with the drop links.
The drop links I can find on ECP, but not the ARB bushes. There are a few on eBay but not model specific and I've just had a reply from one seller that they don't have any currently.
Anyone...
Help please. Been told I need the roll bar bushes and drop links done front and rear. Been looking at various sites to source them. There appears to be quite a few and I'm struggling. There's inners outers etc. can anyone help out a thicko ?
It's a 2003 model.
Many thanks.
Hi,
can someone with WIZ or EPC look up the correct front ARB's for the above vehicle please. There seem to be numerous I.D's due to different size bars and I am getting conflicting sizes when I look online.
If you need the VIN just let me know
thanks in advance,
Matt
The bushes on my front wishbones/ lower arm / control arm are past their best and will need replacing at some point. Just looking at what would be best to do. I've had a quote of £310 just to replace the bushes, but not sure if it's a false economy.
Looking at the wishbone prices...
i need to change the front anti roll bar bushes i have been told that the old ones are moulded onto the roll bar. If this is the case can they just be cut off and new ones fitted? It is on a w203 220 cdi 2003 model
Hello all

Looks like i'm keeping the C32 cos i cant find anything as good to replace it with!!
Anyway am stepping down the modding path and looking for some guidance on suspension, I'd like to go for a set of coil overs all round and change the bushes.
Any recommendations wrt the coil overs and...
