R60 R60 All4 Drive Shaft Removal, subframe drop
R60 All4 Drive Shaft Removal, subframe drop
Hey all,
I have a 2012 R60S All4 that I'm in the midst of removing the subframe in order to swap the control arm bushings and do some rust repair/prevention.
I can't find a ton of guides specific to the R60, let alone the all4. The R56 guides are helpful, but they obviously don't discuss the prop shaft. I'm waiting on a 50mm wrench, and that's next.
I have found a couple of videos, including one for the BMW xdrive that is pretty helpful. linked below
anybody have experience with this?
any protips?
sorry for the edits, learning the editor
