Aluminum/Delrin Subframe Bushings (w/ Subframe)
Have some low mileage BW Aluminum/Delrin Rear Subframe Bushings pre-installed in a ~40k mileage subframe. Save yourself the pain of pressing the bushings into the subframe with this plug and play swap. Asking $400 OBO Located in San Jose CA

How shitty of a job was getting out the old bushings? I did a subframe bushing swap on my 300zx and it was a pain in the balls. If someone had a sub-frame and the bushings already installed on that for $400 I probably would have done that in a heartbeat. But I also had to burn the old bushings out and use a number of different methods like using a hole saw or just drilling 100 smaller holes in the old rubber to finally get the bastard out.
Once enough rubber was removed you could then take a reciprocating saw and cut through the 1/8" or so metal cup/ring that was pressed into the subframe. Then you could chisel and bend the ring out lol Putting the bushing back in was actually the easy part on the 300zx |

These were pressed in by a shop and never installed as I decided moving to aluminum wasn't worth the upgrade over my current Poly bushings (I'm lazy)
