V-Lim Jim

Hi All,

Whilst spending some time in the rear arches of my 1997 V-Lim STI Wagon yesterday to paint my callipers I stumbled across the highlighted rubber parts which I could spin around with my finger.

Should these be able to move or should they be solid? They look perished and cracked either way so if someone could let me know what these are it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Jim

Ah yes the good old rear subframe bushes.

Yours sir are fooked lol

you may hear clonking occasionally, that will be these.

i replaced mine with poly ones, they needed some fettling tho

Tidgy

subframe itself doesnt look too great either.

Thanks for the replies guys, having looked underneath I think the rear subframe is in the worst shape out of everything, I need to get it sorted post exhaust and map

I can't find a part number for GF8 rear subframe bushes, will GC8 parts fit?

Don Clark

They are listed as the same.

Thanks Don
