how many hours labor rate for this job ?
Why did you replace the subframe if it only needed the bushings? Wouldn't it be possible to just lower each side and replace them?
Could u put an updated link
Hands down the best repair video I've ever seen
Wow, thanks!
This is probably the best how to I've ever watched. Damn the lighting and freeze frames. Amazing work.
Awesome video - Loved that you actually cared and used anti-seize when reinstalling all the fasteners. Nice that you just replaced the whole assembly as well, as the old one was getting some nasty rust on it. Great Job!
I'm impressed and I got to see that high torque milwaukee impact wrench do work! I love to see visualizations like this. You showed a good one that gives an idea on how powerful it is. I love your videos man.
Great tutorial, especially for the rookies that don't want to take the rack and pinion out
I don't know if you should be wrenching cars or shoulder pinching headphones and running turntables. These mixed tunes have me rubber necking. And mixing it up with the 50s. . . .Awsome.
The way you manage the camera and display tool sizes and types is very cool.
Love the vid.
Watching from Kelowna British Columbia Canada

Brilliant mechanic. Your a pro at what you do! Honor to see your work and thank you for sharing. I hope your a head of a department or you start your own shop. This video shows your hard work and knowledge! Thank you for Sharing. Your a star. Could of been a surgeon. In a way you are. Thank you and thank you for keeping us safe on the road!
i love you man! in Brazil, this subframe costs more than $1200 dollars in nissan, but the bushings costs $30 dollars in parallel market. I will show this video for my mechanic. Thanks a lot
Your welcome and thanks for sharing
Finally a view of the complete teardown, I was concerned about the Steering rack, I did not want to remove it with the sub frame, all of the other videos show removing the 4 main bolts and then they cut to the sub frame on the ground with the steering rack still attached. Thank you!!!!!!!!
One of the best informative videos I've seen. Great job. Sure made my job easier. Thanks!
Your welcome Wally
Informative? All I heard was music mostly. That's not inform-ative.
@@jeffeye6507 you sound like the type of person that complains about EVERYTHING a true hater! I bet you have zero friends.
Bruh. Your soundtrack is too entertaining! I'm singing with King Louis while you're talking.
I'm not sure which I appreciate better, your thorough information in the video or the video editing! Really excellent stuff man! Keep innovating! Thanks.
i appreciate your comment. Thank you for watching and subscribing.
Thanks for this video. I'm swapping the subframe bushings this week on my Versa and the way you explained how to remove the power steering rack is very useful.
Shout out to the video team and your choice of music. Job well done!
Love the video man. Thanks for spending the time to make it. I feel confident tackling this job now. Going to replace the oem bushings with the polyurethane ones.
Thank you Hakim. Good job. Another nice intro. You're a great tech and video editor. Smooth beats. Have a blessed and safe week.
You have a safe week too Billy!
Came here to fix my sisters annoying clunk on her Nissan Sentra but stayed due to the dope a$% instructions and playlist 😜
Lot of work into making A+++ video besides time to do subframe job. Impressive and talented all the way around.
Thank you for sharing this video. I have been working on this with my 2010 SR the last few days and this has expedited the process tremendously.
I can’t believe this video exists you’re the man!!!
Be sure to use my links if you like my video. Thanks for watching.
Auto Fix Pal how much would you charge for this job?
Auto Fix Pal and is it worth it to change just the bushings or change out the whole SF?
@@chopmeatchuck i believe we charged 6 hours labor for this job.
@@chopmeatchuck if your subframe is not rusted too bad then i would say just do the bushings.
does the motor need additional support or does it have additional support already when removing the subframe
It does not need additional support.
Thank you! Used your method step by step and got it done. Perfect.
Good video. How much would that job cost?
Hace 4 años miré esta clase, Presente en las aventuras de mecánica automotriz mirando en pantalla grande de RUclips en Navojoa Sonora México, excelente tutorial de muy buena càlidad, recibe mi poderosísimo Like
Great Tutoríal my dude!! 👍🏼👍🏼 I’m a Acura/Honda technician in Chicago, thanx for the tips.. about to do the same thing for my GF’s Sentra ... you made my job easier.. .. #salute Soundboy!! ✊🏼
Thank you. Happy this helped.
The Doo-Wop at 8:35 made me so happy.
Thank you very much for this informative film. I watched it before inspecting the work done by a dealer on a Subframe of our 2009 Nissan Sentra. Nissan doesn't make OEM bushings and at dealer they can't replace with aftermarket products, so they needed to replaced the whole subframe, though just bushings went bad. They gave me the original subframe back. I decided to keep it since the suspention in that car is notorious for problems (on 60K all Struts and Shocks went bad and I replaced them myself, but the subframe project was too difficult for me). I was very glad to see from this film that
@19:50, @19:55 Inner and Outer TRs are untouched, they remain connected to the Power Steering Rack during installation. I worried that my rather detailed work on Inner and Outer TRs will be redone and maybe with less precision.
May I know what is the name of that lift for the subframe (@13:14, @18:45, @19:20)? It is really impressive!
And another thing is: in Haynes on P. 10-9 they say: Detach the Tie Rod Ends (Outer TRs) from the Steering Knuckles. And this step was not done in this film. Is it another method was performed here, I assume for more advanced mechanics?
Thank you again.
Instruction manuals are just suggestions. I very rarely reference a service manual for remove and replace work. I stare at it for a few minutes and visualize what will be needed to get the job done. Comes with experience. The confidence follows the experience.
How many miles were on your Sentra when you noticed the issues and how much did the dealer charge for subframe replacement?
@@nedflanders605 ~60K only. Both front struts started to leak, front subframe got that problem w/bushings. All the struts and shock (F and R) I replaced myself, it is not very hard, I should remark. But the F Subframe looked too heavy for me. Dealer charged $2000. The work was done poorly, though they installed a new subframe. Smth is clicking on driving. I need to go back to check w/them. From all described above I concluded that Nissan has a problem in its design w/suspension.
Thanks for the reply. Recently replaced my struts and shocks all around at 80k and planning ahead for whenever this starts up. Annoying design for sure.
@@nedflanders605 My pleasure. I hope that aftermarket parts will last longer. When I replaced the rear shocks, they were bad (didn't spred back after the compression), though visually looked good. I would advise to drive very carefully. My problem w/front Subframe came after I hit w/bottom smth due to the hole in the yard of my relatives. Then another time I hit smth on the road and here that horrible sound started. Maybe I wouldn't hit the F subframe wouldn't fail so quickly. But for sure the design is not good, very sensitive.
Very impressive, thanks. Great editing, style. I tuned in because my 15 Versa (35K) squeaks over speedbumps and the subframe setup looks very similar. Anyway, your vid is great, learned a lot and great music too -- you oughta be in pictures (wait, you are :)
Thank you sir. Yes the Versa is similar.
push the muffler and see if you hear the squeak, could be a loose heat shield rubbing on the muffler or some other part of the exhaust.
Awesome video. What would something like that cost these days?
Nice job !
I have a loud noise on the Passenger Rear. It came after I hit a hole or smth on the road followed w/ horribly loud sound. I thought that the Front Struts went out (one on the PS was reported to have a problem by FireStone, but at Dealer they said it is O'K. After ~ 1-2 years it started to leak, right after I hit that hole on the road). So I replaced the Front Struts, inspected the rear of the car, Rear Shocks looked good to me. But the loud sound on the PR remained. I've learned that the Rear Shocks can be blown in the way they don't spread out after been compressed, so it can be seen only after you remove them. So I replaced them (they were blown and didn't spread at all, so that job should be done anyway), but the horrible sound on the P Rear didn't go away how I hoped. And it is like smth ready to fall apart. No rust in that area or anywhere in general (we are in Dallas TX). I've seen one film, where he said the problem is very common for the cars, like 2009 Nissan Sentra 2.0L (which is our car). And it always come on the Passenger Rear. I think maybe it is Rear Spring Bushing. Can I just remove the Rear Springs, install new ones (with new bushing)? Is it possible? Thank you very much for this informative and unique film.
Nice u work at Nissan I used too going back soon I'm ready for all those recalls and cvts lol
This video is top notch man. Earned yourself a subscriber
Awesome video like watching a cartoon or a music video. Love the animations.
To get to the steering rack bolts, it would be easier to drop the frame a little no? Cause when you put it back it looked like it made it much easier.
great video, I like how you put the descriptions of the tools used. Replacing lower control arms and it led me to your video. On my problem, one thing led to another and realized I need to change the cv boot/axle on driver side possibly both. But stuck now trying to pry the driver side CV axle off. Any suggestions? Also, my car is a manual transmission, the fluid coming out through the axle assembly, is it the engine oil or MT fluid and what do you recommend in using if it is MT fluid?
Hi! Great video. is there any way to change the sway bar bushings on this vehicle without dropping the entire frame like you have done?
you can just lower the back section of the subframe. You should be able to do it that way. Not 100% sure though. worth trying.
How much did you charge for the work ?
Wonderful Job Hakim the presentation, background music and the accuracy of the video recording wow I'm not sure mecano is your real function lol, I have a question, what noise that can put us on the track of the sub frame, because my Nissan makes a cracking noise when I turn the steering wheel and I confirm that it is not the shock absorbers, I thought maybe the rack and pinion but seeing your video have a doubt !?
Thank you continue your work and to AFP
I love the video and the productor Canada men u both this a good job thanks guys
Does the steering rack on this car have mounting bushings? It appears the rack gets bolted solidly to the subframe and I suppose gets isolated to the body through the subframe bushings?
You are correct. I dont recall any more recent nissan with bushings in the rack.
2 minutes in. Already got a subscriber
Nice work on the subframe. Just want to know the cost for that subframe? I have a Nissan bluebird Sylphy 2012 model chassis # KG11124061 what is the cost for mine ?
where is this place. how many hours are for that job
Do you know if the Nissan Rouge 08-17 subframe bushings fit a 08 Nissan Sentra, thanks for the video by the way!
Great job on video definitely professional video quality oh and your pretty damn good mechanic too thank you .
Great vid! When tightening front subframe bolts, is there supposed to be a space between that washer on the bolt and the subframe? Thanks.
yes
Auto Fix Pal thanks for the quick reply. Just to be clear. That washer is not supposed to be flush or touch the frame?
@@FeraNenem77 it doesnt touch the frameonly the center section where the bolt goes through.
I appreciate this video and I’m just an average car user. My car needs a new subframe. Is it worth the cost? Or better to just get a new car? Edit: not another brand new, but just another car in general. Thank you!
depends on the condition of the rest of the car. You can probably get aftermarket bushings installed in your subframe if its not rusted too badly. Look into that option. bushings are sold separately here amzn.to/2XLnH0J
He did an excellent job, but seeing Nissan designs along with their inferior jatco transmission get a Toyota or Honda .
@Auto Fix Pal that link doesn’t work.
How long did it took you to do this job? How many hours? Thanks
Great video man. Love the music
Wow. This is a great video. New sub👍
Is the same as for thr 2008 nissan altima 2.5 s as well
Good video. Any chance of doing frontier 4.0L alternator starter and rear axle replacement video if they come along Thanks. Keep up the good work
If they come along and the work load permits me to record, I will. Sometimes we just get too busy for me to record as it takes longer to do the job. But i will try. Thanks for watching.
i had 2 of these cars i remember doing control arms was a pain they re good cars
🇺🇸 thanks 👍 great video very easy to understand
Frame $900 on Nissan, BUT Bushings Dorman Dorman 523-227 and Dorman Dorman 523-228 $100 dlls
wanted to say thank you for your video was very helpful.
Great video, very informative. 👍
Do you really have to remove all of that just to get to some bushings
How much would u charge for job like that?
Do you know if this happens on Juke's as well ?
have not seen this on jukes. But there are very little of them on the roads so you may need to check it.
Great video...would same apply for 2010 Nissan Rogue?
Almost the same.
Great video and work 👍 buen video amigo
Would this issue cause any problem with properly aligning the wheels?
I did my whole front suspension and then went to have my wheels aligned. And my steering wheel still doesn't sit straight like it used to.the guy told me it's because my subframe is fucked but I was telling him that's bullshit it sat fine before
Excellent video, thank you!
Hey guys I know this video was uploaded a long time ago.. But I need help.. I can't for the life of me get the bolt off connecting the control arm to the sub frame. (The one by its self towards the rear of the vehicle) I have used a breaker bar and my impact wrench to no avail.. Any tips?? In begging yall.. Anybody please
I know it is late and probably you found a solution, but if someone reads and has similar problem, I would soak the connection w/PB Blust Penetrant for several days and see what will come. It helps a lot to disconnect all kind of stuck things.
But......who actually does this type of work? What type of Shop would you bring your Sentra to to have the subframe or the subframe bushings changed out? A general mechanic? I doubt they are familiar with this type tof repair. A body shop? Would cost a fortune. An alignment shop? I don't know? This seems like one of those specialty type jobs.
Please shed some light as I have a friend that has issue. Thanks!
That's a great question. Maybe someone will answer soon!
I have very loud sound on the Rassenger Rear of our 2009 Nissan Sentra after I hit smth on the road. I replaced Front Struts and Rear Shocks, but the sound remained, and it is like smth is going to fell apart, very loud and horrible. I went to do alignment hoping it will solve the problem, or at least they will tell me what it is. I asked, they don't know (Cowboy Toyota Dealer in Dallas TX). They did alignment w/good results on the report, and the car passed State Inspection, but my husband says it is not safe to drive that car on HWs with such sound. So alignment shops won't help I assume.
Where is this place
How much does this cost roughly? Including labor and parts
Dealer $1800!
what is this music? I'm lovin it!
Amazing, very good.
Noise over bumps, it is only the subframe bushings or the lower arm bushings can be a culprit too, educate me so I don't spend crazily.
Thanks
Are you making a music video or is something about cars ?
What is the cost for this repair? Parts and labor.
I believe it was almost 2k.. The subframe is about 900 dollars I believe. I'm positive you can find a good used subframe on eBay from like a California vehicle at a reasonable price.
Auto Fix Pal omg I am royally screwed. That is an insane about money for me. I’m not bashing you just venting my frustration. At least you prepared me for the shock I was going to receive at the shop. I thank you for that and for replying so quickly.
@@Hernsama the good news is that it's designed in a way that it won't fall out from underneath you (unless it's severely rusted) so it's just more so an annoyance and stability of your vehicle may suffer some.
@@Hernsama you can also try to find a shop that's willing to try and install new bushings instead of replacing the whole subframe.
Auto Fix Pal what was the deciding factor that cause the subframe to be replaced instead of just the bushings? Thanks
How much does they charge to done this job
Lmk please
Dealer will charge u $1800 parts n labor!
GOOG JOB !! nizzze in smooooovvve
How much this frame?
Comprehensive!
I see many versa & Sentra at the scrap yard maybe cuz of that , people prefer selling it at the scrape yard when it’s a 200 000km and more with a value of 2000$ and less , when it’s broken with used tires and brakes , too much money to invest , result scrape yard
Me gustó
Wish you could of showed the sounds it’s making before putting it on. My Sentra is making a sounds, replaced the struts, mechanic can’t figure it out. My life.
good job good video du ... the music is damww ugly🤣🤣🤣
Yiu should charge us for watching this video!
You can pay me if you want..😁
The music is so obnoxious. Great content, though.
2:10 Those poor rims..... :'(
I honestly feel like this is a poor design that Nissan decided to go with
This is really bad engineering, a car owner should never be faced with such a ridiculous repair, just shitty cheap design,
