Reinforced Rear Subframe
BMW E36

Price range: $795.00 through $845.00

Just like the E36 front subframe, the OEM E36 rear subframe has some weak points, and those really come apparent when adding power. The Apex Engineered BMW E36 reinforced rear subframe is a completely new replacement subframe, with no core charges, no back-and-forth shipping, just a brand-new bolt on upgrade!

Our subframe is rated at over 1000HP and TQ to take abuse from drag racing, drifting and even rally racing. In addition to the strength improvement, the subframe has a TON of roll-center adjustability to fine tune your E36 rear suspension geometry. The rear subframe also comes with brand-new poly bushings, which are stiffer than the factory ones but not teeth shattering like solid aluminum ones. Our Rear subframe also comes with brand-new sway bar bushings for easy installation!
