Product Details
The Powerflex Transfer Case Bushing Insert for the BMW X5 E70, X6 E71, and X6 F16 is a performance upgrade designed to improve the durability and response of the transfer case mount. Over time, the factory rubber bushings in the transfer case can wear out or become too soft, leading to excess movement under load, which affects drivetrain performance. Powerflex's polyurethane insert helps address this issue by reinforcing the original mount.
Key Features:
Material: The Powerflex Transfer Case Bushing Insert is made from high-performance polyurethane, which is significantly more durable than the OEM rubber bushing. Polyurethane resists wear from heat, oil, and road contaminants, providing a longer-lasting solution.
Functionality: This insert is designed to reduce excess movement of the transfer case by filling in the gaps of the original rubber bushing. It helps stabilize the transfer case during acceleration, deceleration, and cornering, reducing drivetrain slop and improving throttle response.
Enhanced Drivetrain Stability: With the increased rigidity provided by the bushing insert, power delivery becomes smoother, and the transfer of torque between the front and rear wheels is more efficient. This is particularly beneficial in high-performance or heavy-duty driving conditions where the original bushing may allow for too much movement.
Compatibility: The Powerflex Transfer Case Bushing Insert is specifically designed for the BMW X5 (E70), X6 (E71), and X6 (F16) models. It is a direct fit and does not require the removal or replacement of the original bushing, making installation easier compared to full bushing replacements.
Installation: The insert is relatively easy to install compared to full bushing replacements, as it is designed to reinforce the existing bushing without requiring its complete removal. This makes it a more convenient option for those looking to upgrade their drivetrain without a time-consuming installation process.
Benefits:
Improved Power Transfer: By reducing flex in the transfer case mount, the Powerflex insert helps maintain better alignment of the drivetrain, leading to more consistent power transfer and improved handling.
Longevity: Polyurethane bushings are known for their resilience and long life, especially in comparison to the factory rubber bushings, which are more prone to wear and tear over time.
Cost-Effective Performance Upgrade: This insert offers a significant improvement in drivetrain performance and stability without the need for a full bushing replacement, making it a cost-effective way to upgrade the vehicle's dynamics.
Reduced Drivetrain Slop: The insert minimizes the amount of unwanted movement in the transfer case, helping to prevent drivetrain shudder or clunking sounds that can occur during hard acceleration or gear changes.
