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.

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).

Worn rubber differential mounts will lead to the differential twisting and shifting around in the rear subframe. Not only will this be noisy but it's bad for driver confidence and bad for the chassis as well. Even on fresh rubber bushings the differential has deflection and twist, especially if the car has been modified for more torque. Since the differential is centrally mounted in the rear subframe, with all suspension mounts interconnected, a differential with too much deflection will affect handling and could even damage the rear subframe.

These 88A urethane E46 diff mounts are much stiffer than stock but still not as solid as our Turner aluminum/Delrin bushings. This set will resist twisting much better than the stock rubber mounts. Included are the two front diff mounts and the rear mount in the cover.

BMW E46 Z4 Rear Polyurethane Differential Bushing Performance is the ultimate upgrade for enhancing the connection between your BMW's chassis and differential.
