Replacing Rear subframe
 
Hello there!

I have a 1996 3.7 FWD. Its just failed its MOT after a hole was found in the web od one of the mounting points on the rear subframe.

While I have been able to get it welded, I think long term I am going to have to replace it. While I am doing it, i might as well replace the suspension arms etc.

I am after a bit of help.

Can anyone do any of the following?

1. Give me an exploded view of the rear suspension with part numbers.

2. Recommend a supplier for new rear suspension parts.

3. Recommend a supplier for new/good used rear subframe.

Any help would be appreciated.:)

Martin,

For a replacement rear subframe the www.a8parts.co.uk is the only place to go.

For new suspension components try GSF.

For exploded drawings:

I would power paint subframe before installing it!
