This video demonstrates how to replace the subframe bushings on the buick lesabre. The bushings used in this video will work for the 1992-1999 Buick Lesabre the later models will be similar procedure just a different part number. The subframe bushings were purchased from Amazon and I’ll leave a link below I will also include links to some of the tools used in the video as well.

are all the bushings the same size?
Bar slips could smash your fingers. Pry down & put block of wood in there for spacer. Thank you very much for your detailed video, it was very helpful.
You can also take all the bushings off an 2005 buick lesabre and use those if ur in a pinch. Mine been on there for 2 months now and I took them of my 05 lesabre that I was parting out. Top cups are bigger and the bushings are wider but they work, also saved me over 400$ for all 6 sets of new bushings
How do you know if u need these replaced? Do they make a sound? Do they make the car drive rough?
Do you know what size that nut on the top is?
The nuts rusted and broke on mine i cant get the bolts out any advice? thanks.
I've got a '97 with the exact same problem! Same two inner ones are all rusted! Thanks for the demonstration! That'll help me out!
Car has been making a 'groaning' noise… turns out it's my bushings. Hopefully going to tackle this project this week. Thanks for the how-to!!
Great job THANKS1
Thanks Blue Collar Garage for doing all these great videos. It’s actually giving me some knowledge about how to get these jobs done DIY. My next project on my ‘12 Chrysler 200 Touring convertible is to replace the seeping transaxle pressure cooling line. I went with Dorman as well because the Mopar lines were priced ridiculously high. I’ve wondered for years why OE parts are priced that way. They’re not even competitive priced with other sources like Dorman.
