    About how long should it take me to remove the rear subframe?

    I'm replacing the subframe bushings and trying to figure out a schedule.

    Took 2 full days with hand tools on my S4. Lining up the subframe to get it straight is going to be the biggest hurdle, besides rusty bolts and nuts

    You'll also have to burn out the old ones

    Sure sounds like it will be a major project. I guess I better really confirm I need new bushings before just jumping in then. Thanks all
