X3M40 diff bolt issue

COM40 · 05-17-2024, 10:36 PM

Is this factory diff bolt issue a concern for those with unmodified cars that aren't launched?

See post # 7 and 8, if not aggressively launching the car on a routine basis or running a tuned car, it's not necessary.

Good to know.

I got paranoid since I was getting clunking on acceleration but I realized it was just my bike rack shifting in the receiver.

Ryan's subframe kit came in.

We are aware solid bushings causes vibrations and unwanted sounds from testing. We also offer end bushing for extra piece of mind at only £59 extra plus bolt collar kit £199 = £259.

All the best

Is this confirmed to fit on the G01?

I can’t speak on if that kit does but mine does for sure. 😃 honestly thought I doubt it would since when burr tried to install the Vargas inserts they didn’t fit so a part of me thinks it might be a different size. I can measure my stock brushing and see if someone with an x3m can aswell

AshtonPJT how difficult of an install a kit like that would be? Can I manage on the garage floor?

More difficult or easier than the front thrust arms?

Both, I am guessing will be about the same process.
