How To Replace Rear Trailing Arm Bushes on a BMW E89 Z4

This process to replace RTAB’s applies to the BMW E89 Z4 built from 2009 to 2016.  The fundamentals of the process also apply to the E36 3 series, E46 3 series and the E85 Z4.  In this video I am replacing the factory bushes with an aftermarket option from Hardrace (Part number: 7260) that was designed for the E36,E46, E85 & E89.  I’m also fitting optional RTAB limiters from FCP Euro (P/N: 093031010).

This job is just as easy to do on jack stands as a hoist, as long as the back of the vehicle is high enough to get under and remove/refit the V-brace.
