TMS E46 "solid" sub-frame bushings are designed around current Grand Am Cup regulations, derived from, and currently used in TMS racecars. They are legal for the series. Thick delrin casings are used as the non-metallic solid bushing. High quality aluminum sleeves, with increased surface area, are then pressed into each of the casings with washers integrated into each one. The washers are employed to add an extra safety factor for securing the sub-frame into position. One front bushing is slotted to allow for compliance between manufacturing standards as BMW specifies. We recommend that this kit be professionaly installed- in other words, its not easy to install.

The Turner rear trailing-arm bushing limiter kit creates a stiffer rear suspension without sacrificing ride quality. Stock trailing arm bushings are known for failure, on both the E36 and E46 BMW chassis. This kit is a perfect upgrade from stock, as it reduces bushing deflection, dramatically increases bushing life, improves handling, and all without the harshness of "race-only" bushings, and while maintaining completely silent operation -- no squeaks and no vibration, whatsoever.

By combining these limiters with stock bushings, this is a great low cost and effective suspension performance enhancer. Each pair of blue aluminum "shims" essentially sandwich the stock rubber bushing to control their lateral movement. By limiting the amount of side-to-side play of the stock bushing, drivers will have increased driver feel thanks to the reduction of toe variation caused by the squirm of the stock rubber bushings. This also reduces duress on the bushing, giving your newly installed bushings a dramatically longer lifespan (a welcome benefit for both pure street or tracked cars). Some stock class racing series even allow this kind of modification, because the stock bushing is still being used.

Kit includes:
- 4-Blue anodized aluminum bushing limiters,
- eight 5mm allen bolts
- 1 drilling template.

This RTAB limiter / shim kit fits the following BMWs:

- 1992-1999 E36 3 Series including 318i, 318is, 325i, 325is, 328i, 328is & 323is
- 1995-1999 E36 M3 3.0 & 3.2 (coupe & sedan)
- 1999-2005 E46 3 Series including 323i, 323Ci, 325i, 325Ci, 325xi, 328i, 328Ci, 330i, 330xi & 330Ci
- 2001-2006 E46 M3 coupe & convertible
- 2004-2011 X3 2.5, 3.0
- 2003-2009 Z4 Roadster & Coupe (2.5, 3.0, 3.0si)

TMS rear subframe bearings are designed to limit rear control arm movement relative to the subframe. The stock BMW subframe bushings are made out of rubber, which allows variance in suspension position due to deformation and compression. A race car needs to have all suspension points remain in place for proper setup. By using high grade aircraft aluminum alloy and high performance race bearings, the TMS bushing replacements are both lightweight and strong. The casing is designed so that if maximum motion occurs, the load will be evenly distributed throughout the casing. Our flanges are designed to spread the load on the subframe and limit movement. The bearing we use is an extra wide race bearing to distribute the load over a broader area. Each piece is anodized or nickel plated to withstand corrosion. These bushings are a perfect compliment to the TMS lower camber arms.
