BMW Suspension Bushings & Mounts

Upgrade your drivetrain performance with ECS Tuning Performance Polyurethane Differential Bushings—engineered specifically for BMW F8x/G8x models and designed to deliver superior power transfer, durability, and driving precision.

Factory rubber differential bushings are built for comfort, absorbing vibrations between the differential and chassis during everyday driving. However, they are a known wear item that degrade over time—especially under spirited or aggressive driving conditions. Many F8x/G8x owners experience premature cracking and wear, leading to excessive drivetrain movement, reduced throttle response, and unwanted wheel hop.

ECS Tuning’s in-house engineered polyurethane differential bushings provide a high-performance solution to these common issues. By significantly reducing drivetrain deflection, these upgraded bushings enhance throttle response, improve handling stability, and minimize wheel hop—resulting in a more connected and controlled driving experience.

Constructed from durable 95A durometer red polyurethane and paired with precision CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum sleeves, these bushings are built to withstand extreme driveline forces while maintaining street-friendly comfort. Unlike solid or delrin mounts, ECS polyurethane bushings strike the perfect balance between performance and daily drivability—delivering increased rigidity without excessive noise, vibration, or harshness (NVH).

Whether you're carving canyon roads, launching at the drag strip, or simply commuting, these performance differential bushings ensure more efficient power delivery from the differential to the wheels—giving you better throttle modulation, traction, and overall control.

Replace worn factory bushings with ECS Performance Polyurethane Differential Bushings and experience tighter handling, improved drivetrain response, and long-lasting reliability.

The E36/E46 rear trailing arm bushings (RTABs) wear out faster than any other bushing on the car. Worn RTAB will cause excessive toe alignment change and give a 'loose' or 'floaty' feeling in the rear handling. One of the reasons for this is that they over-extend during motion, stretching and twisting the rubber in all directions. These shims sit on either side of the bushing and limit the amount of extension from the bushing. Not only will you get more life from your RTAB but these will help stiffen the bushing during cornering. But during normal driving you will still have all of the comfort of the stock rubber bushings. These part about these bushings is how easy they are to install - simply slide them in place during your bushing install. They can be added to pre-installed bushings too by dropping the trailing arm and removing the cage around the bushing.

Works with stock rubber bushings only (not urethane or Delrin).

This upper shock tower strut mount is located at the top of the shock. We recommend inspecting or replacing these while replacing the rear shocks.
