Replacing Automotive Bushings

Model: BMW Serie 7 MK 3, E38 - Years 1994-2001
Part: Bushings

If the bushings on your vehicle are worn, they need to be replaced, along with the control arms, suspensions, shock absorbers, sway bar links, etc. You can replace them yourself without needing a mechanic's help. You can find new ones at an auto parts store. To replace them, simply lower the bar to make removal easier. This job is extremely simple and can be done with a bit of patience. Just disconnect the sway bar link at the end that is connected to the stabilizer bar and above the shock absorber.
