Thank you and I appreciate your time and effort to document your DIY projects. Of note a couple of points. It was easier for me to 1) remove both front tires 2) remove the lower nut from the stabilizer bar links and disconnect the stabilizer bar from the links 3) a flex head ratchet is a must 4) 14mm tall and short sockets . 5) Soak all bolts with WD40 or similar product. I was able to easily access both bolts that hold on the bushings without the need to go under the car. By detaching the links allows for the bar to be rotated to access the front bolts more easily. And finally the stabilizer bar can be moved around easily to allow access to remove and replace the bushings. And YES my clunk went away. For my 2012 Mazda I used Polyurethane bushings made by Siberian Bushing part # 4-01-2143

Thanks for the video! I just did this on my 2007 Mazda 3 sedan and holy mother of heck was it a tough job getting at the bolts and, most frustratingly, getting the new bushings and brackets back on. My 2007 did not have the collars on the sway bar, nor directional markers on the brackets. Took patience and 3 lbs of skin from my hands to get the job done, but totally rewarding. My saving grace was a flat crow bar pushing down on the brackets so that I could have a chance at getting the bolts back in.

UK here. My '06 Mazda 3 has developed a driver-side knock that my first thought was drop links but wasn't. Only thing left was the bushings and as the manual says drop the subframe and use a vice to get the bushings into the brackets it wasn't going to get done. But seeing this I'll have a look to if it can be done the same way. Manual says the bolts should be tightened rear-front-rear. Never had these bushings need replacing on any car I've owned in 50 years even with double the mileage on the '3.

I replaced every end link and ball joint on this car as well as front bearings and this is next as well as 4 (3?) new motor mounts. Also may want to add some KY or some other non petroleum based lubricant (poly bushing grease) to this to reduce the friction and wear of the new piece.

Little trick I found for these demon bushes is to jack under the control arm a touch to take some weight, flick the strut end of the link out, then undo the 2 big bolts that go through that rear control bush bracket. It's not a huge amount, but does gain some extra access to the sway bar bush bracket without the lower cntrl arm bolt in the way 😅. Tbh, they're just a pain in the ass on these things lol

My mechanic said my boots are rusted too bad to take apart without snapping. My understanding is that the nuts are part of the frame and hidden . They tried penetrating fluid but no good. So for now we are leaving it as is for now. I was a mechanic long ago so I'll check it out soon myself. What do you think is the best way to break this rust? With an inductive heater I can most likely reach the bolt but it would be best to heat the nut. Captured in the frame. Any ideas?

I just snapped one of the bolts. I had changed them before on my other Mazda 5, so I knew what to expect. Tonight got one up about 2mm and the other less than one, then one head snapped off! You can imagine the situation I'm in with the position of these. Fortunately, the bracket is so rusted in place, it's not moving at all! And it turns out it was the lower control arm that I changed out at the same time. What a pain. Will likely drill holes from bottom of table to drill out the bolts, then use bolt and washer to re-attach.

Had mine done at a mazda dealer for under 300$ out the door. Your dealer must charge to drop the subframe. I would recommend switching car brands, mazda dealers are low key trash. They will straight up refuse to do a transmission filter on this vehicle when it is the same design as all other trans filters. That was the last straw for me, as all their newer cars are nightmares to work on and I have never seen a mazda with 200k or more.

But again, I'm glad it's done. Also, The Mazda dealership would've have changed out my transmission filter, but they didn't see the need to. So I didn't do it.

Mike! Help! I watched this and was all set to go. Even got the hinge head ratchet. I started on the passenger side. Bolts came out without much trouble. But I couldn't get the old bushing out, as it was stuck under the bar. Finally by pushing the bar a little, it split the bushing at the bottom where it seemed to be cracked. But now the bar is dead solid against the frame and it's impossible to get the new bushing in. Will the bar lift if I remove the driver's side also? I only had one jack stand, so I thought I'd do one side at a time. Is the only way to do this job by removing both brackets and bushings so the bar will lift and you can get the new bushings under the bar? Thanks!

Like others commented I was able to get the rear bolt off from the wheel well by removing the sway bar links (which I was going to replace as well). Was able to muscle the bracket and old bushing out, no problem. BUT when it came time to put the new bushing back in, I was able to get that on, but couldn’t get the bracket on over it. The bracket definitely fit over the new bushing when I tested it off of the sway bar, but it was too difficult to get it onto the bushing on the sway bar within the tight space. So I stuck the old bushing back on without the bracket for the short drive of shame to the mechanic. Anyone have any idea how I might be able to get that bracket back on in that tight of a space? Otherwise, I’m guessing my mechanic will have to drop the subframe to get at it. Figure I’ll have them do the tie rods and engine mounts while they’re at it. FWIW, I was working on a 2008 Mazda 3 not a Mazda 5 like the one in the video.

Its a PITA but can be done in about 30 minutes but its a toolless 3 minute job on my caravan. AS of trhte helicopter noise, Id check your CV's and front bearings. Remove the front CV's and then remount tire on spindle and spin, should be quiet. replacing these is tough, I would recommend buying the hub with bearings and bring both spindles to a shop and have them press the new bearings and hubs on. you can do it with a rented bearing press from Autozone/Oreilly but its really hard work if your not accustomed to projects like this.

Got a Mazda 5 about a year ago and in the next few weeks gonna start the process of figuring out why the front suspension is so clunky. Haven't even looked into proper jack stand placement for this car yet. Do you know off hand where the "recommended" spots are?

With a long enough extension you can get to both by the top EVEN driver side if you have a person guiding from the ground.. that.being said you'll most likely have to use a 1/2 inch 500ft lb torque impact to get the DAMN frozen bolts off oh and pray to the cars god's they don't break.

When you go in from the back, it’s best to have fresh rubber and lots of lubricant 😂
