Differential Mounts

At Turner we are very familiar with the N55 and B58. These are the new generation engines that you you can pull quite a bit of power from quite easily, if you want to put the power to the pavement the factory bushings and reinforcement just wont cut it. With soo many performance parts available for the turbocharged engines, it is very easy to make power but keeping the car under control can be another story. Reduce wheel hop, extend the life of your bearings, and add stability to your chassis!

Our in-house engineers created a solution to help transfer the power to the ground, the result is a simple yet astounding improvement to the performance of your vehicle. The rear diff brace helps put power down by reducing wheel hop and preventing losses during power transfer. With the added rigidity the rear end feels tighter for high speed applications and will extend the life of your choice of OE or aftermarket bushings.

Soft factory rubber differential bushings absorb vibrations between the chassis and differential, providing comfort and softness for normal driving conditions. As these bushings wear you will experience lackluster performance/response and they will need to be replaced. You can extend the life of these bushings while providing increased chassis stability with our differential brace for your F chassis. Add new poly differential bushings for an even better experience (T#:656153)

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Turner F Chassis Differential brace was designed, engineered, tested and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer and rigorous long term product testing.

Harness unused potential. Drive with confidence. Engineered to maximize strength and cooling performance while utilizing the unused secondary factory differential mount for enhanced support and driveline stability.

Our Turner Motorsport Dual-Mount Differential Cover is purpose-built to reinforce one of the most critical components in the G8X M3/M4 drivetrain. From the factory, BMW includes a secondary bushing location in the rear subframe but leaves it unused. Our solution fully capitalizes on this overlooked feature, giving the differential a second point of support for improved rigidity, reduced movement, and enhanced driveline response under load.

This cover is more than just a mounting upgrade. It’s precision-machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum for exceptional strength without unnecessary weight. An aggressive fin profile improves thermal efficiency, helping to lower fluid temperatures in high-stress environments. Inside, the cover features an embossed channel that mirrors the ring gear path, ensuring fluid stays in contact where it's needed most, improving cooling and lubrication in all conditions.

Whether you're carving corners on the street or pushing the limits on track, this differential cover is designed to keep your rear end cool, stable, and responsive.

Key Features and Benefits:

The dual-mount design utilizes the factory-provided secondary bushing location, adding critical support to reduce differential deflection, extend bushing life, and minimize wheel hop.
CNC-machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum, offering high strength and a precise fit.
Built-in cooling fins increase surface area for improved heat dissipation and lower differential fluid temperatures.
Internally contoured to follow the ring gear profile, promoting consistent fluid coverage and effective lubrication.
Maintains a 1.1-liter fluid capacity, closely matching OEM specifications for ease of servicing.
Integrated -6 AN ports support the addition of an external differential cooler for increased fluid volume and extended service intervals.
Compatible with the factory differential fluid temperature sensor and includes provisions for 1/4” NPT aftermarket sensors.
Product Development:

Like all Turner Motorsport performance solutions, this differential cover was developed in-house by our dedicated Research and Development team. Designed, engineered, tested, and quality-inspected using advanced tools including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, in-house rapid prototyping, and extensive long-term testing, you can trust that this part meets the highest standards of fit, function, and durability.

From spirited street driving to full-throttle track days, the Turner Motorsport Dual-Mount Differential Cover ensures your G8X delivers the response, strength, and cooling capacity it needs when it matters most.

As your E30 ages, the rear differential bushing can crack, dry rot, and split. It's time for an upgrade. The ECS Tuning Heavy Duty Differential Bushing is crafted with performance in mind. Instead of using polyurethane, which is known for increasing NVH, the enthusiasts at ECS chose HD 70D rubber. This material offers a close-to-factory feel without the excess deflection of softer bushings, ensuring a pleasurable driving experience free from differential whine and excess movement.

Features & Benefits:

Eliminates Weak OEM Mount: The aging E30 chassis deserves an upgrade. Replace your old, cracked, and worn factory bushing with this HD alternative for improved performance. Perfect for Street or Track: Constructed from HD rubber instead of polyurethane or Delrin, this bushing provides comfort for daily driving while remaining effective in performance applications. Added Responsiveness: The 70D HD rubber compound is stiffer than the stock material, reducing drivetrain movement and effectively locking down your rear differential. Easy Installation: Precision-manufactured to the exact specifications of your OEM differential bushing, the ECS heavy-duty replacement installs just like the factory component. Whether you are replacing an aging factory bushing, removing excess driveline movement, or balancing performance and comfort, ECS Tuning has you covered with their Heavy Duty Rear Differential Bushing.
