Rear differential mount recommendations

Man, I wish I was mechanically inclined and my hope is that I will learn enough here to get out of my comfort zone. I've worked on my other cars but no on a BMW. I admire those of you who perform your own maintenance projects. Kudos

I wasn't comfortable to do this job as well. But after spending sometime on forums and with the help of Shawn's tool changing bushings wasn't hard at all. It's definitely a DIY project. The only problem I had is to dropping exhaust.

I thought this was a really hard DIY.

In the sense that you did it and found that it was really hard, or that you had come to believe it was really hard?

^clarification would be appreciated.

I should note I could not (and did not) swap two two forward diff bushings as the tool I have won't fit in the space without dropping the subframe.

I never did it but the DIY I saw were really involved and included dropping the Subframe.

No need to drop subframe. I didn't even remove the exhaust.

I had rented a tool to do the small ones.
