034 Billet Aluminium Rear Subframe Reinforcement Kit, Audi B4/B5 RS2 & A4/S4/RS4 Quattro - 034-40...

Installed this on a B5 1.8t Quattro - facelift. It's tricky to fit - the top bolt as it mounts to the subframe is difficult to tighten and requires a little finesse. I put the bottom bolt in the hole just poking through enough to keep it square, put a ring spanner on the top nut, then tightened down the top bolt.

Additionally, if it seems like you're not getting it to fit properly - like you're at the end of adjustment ranges -
- Install with all hardware very loose
- tighten the subframe bracket in its most extreme rearward position
- Tighten the swaybar mount end
- then tightening down the in-between bolts to pull it all together.

(One side of my subframe was so bent out of shape that the control arm would have rubbed on the reinforcement kit, hence it being "out of adjustment range" )

I'd also suggest using the OEM swaybar mount -> subframe bolts if you're using the OEM swaybar. The supplied bolts are way too long to use with the OEM swaybar.

Performance wise the brackets do make an actual difference to overall handling. I can squeal the front outer tyre on hard corners now.

I would recommend this if you have a B5. Even with the puny OEM swaybar the rear subframe IS BENDING. It will crack, eventually. Small price to pay, plus it looks neat and gives you a great excuse to get a giant swaybar later :D

034 Billet Aluminium Rear Subframe Reinforcement Kit, Audi B4/B5 RS2 & A4/S4/RS4 Quattro.

034Motorsport is proud to offer the ultimate rear subframe reinforcement solution for the B5 Audi A4/S4/RS4 Quattro! The 034Motorsport Billet Aluminum Rear Subframe Reinforcement Kit is made from T6-6061 Billet Aluminum for maximum rigidity, and is designed to prevent failure of the rear subframe on B4/B5 Quattro vehicles, which is very common with upgraded rear sway bars .

This product was tested thoroughly on the street and track on our shop B5 Audi S4 before release.

Features:

  • T6-6061 Billet Aluminum Construction
  • Reinforces Rear Subframe at Rear Sway Bar Mounting Points
  • Compatible with Stock & Aftermarket Sway Bars
  • Direct Bolt-In Installation
  • Includes High-Grade Installation Hardware

What's Included:

  • 034Motorsport B5 Audi A4/S4/RS4 Quattro Rear Subframe Reinforcement Kit
  • High-Grade Installation Hardware

Fitment:

  • B4 Audi S2/RS2
  • 1996 - 2001 Audi A4 Quattro (B5)
  • 2000 - 2002 Audi S4 (B5)
  • 2000 - 2002 Audi RS4 (B5)

Installation Instructions:

Please Note: The use of this rear subframe reinforcement bracket is required when using an upgraded sway bar on B4/B5 chassis Quattro vehicles. The rear subframe is prone to cracking with an upgraded sway bar, and will likely crack if you attempt to use this sway bar without subframe reinforcements. If you do not already have a subframe reinforcement kit, you must purchase the 034Motorsport Billet Rear Subframe Reinforcement Bracket. This subframe reinforcement kit fits Quattro vehicles only.

Service & Maintenance Guide

Minor Service - Oil Service

Every 10k is a minor service - oil and filter. Do not follow the factory 15K and go 7k for tuned vehicles. Oil is cheap, engines are not!

Intermediate Service

Every 30k is an intermediate service - oil and filter, cabin filter & air filter, brake fluid flush, remote batteries.

Major Service

Every 60k is a major service - oil and filter, cabin filter & air filter, remote batteries, brake fluid flush, fuel filter, DSG gearbox oil and filter (unless automatic, manual, tiptronic or multitronic), spark plugs and haldex oil.

Additional: Water pump & timing belt and poly belt on belt driven engines should be done every 60k.

Intermediate Service

Every 90k is another intermediate service - same as 30k plus a poly belt / accessory belt.

Replace Haldex fluid every 30k rather than 60k, Gearbox oil change at 40k for DSG is advised. Front and rear differential oils are "longlife" but replace every 60k to be safe.
