VTT F9X M5/M8 Differential Lockdown Kit

F90 M5 / F91 M8 / F92 M8 / F93 M8

VTT saw a major hole in the F9X M5/M8 market: there was no simple, lightweight, high-quality solution for positively controlling differential movement under hard launches, acceleration, and cornering without requiring extensive installation work or introducing the excessive NVH commonly associated with solid differential and subframe bushings.

So, as usual, we did something about it.

The VTT F9X M5/M8 Differential Lockdown Kit was engineered to positively locate and stabilize the differential while retaining the factory differential and subframe bushings.

The result is dramatically improved differential stability without dropping the subframe, removing the differential, moving the exhaust, or turning your M5/M8 into an NVH-filled race car.

Under a hard launch or aggressive acceleration, the tremendous torque being transferred through the F9X drivetrain attempts to move and rotate the differential within its factory mounting system. That unwanted movement can contribute to driveline instability, shock-load components, and place additional stress on the driveshaft, guibos, axles, and other drivetrain components.

The VTT Differential Lockdown adds a rigid secondary structure that ties the differential directly into the subframe through five mounting points, dramatically reducing unwanted movement while still allowing the factory bushings to provide NVH isolation.

Positive diff location. Minimal additional NVH. 1.5 lbs. Installs in minutes.

No subframe removal.
No differential removal.
No exhaust removal.

VTT F9X M5/M8 Rear Differential Rear Bushing Insert Kit

VTT F9X M5/M8 Rear Differential Lockdown Kit

Looking to tighten up the rear differential on your F9X M5 or M8 and eliminate unwanted differential movement during hard launches, aggressive shifting, and high-horsepower driving? VTT has you covered.

Our Rear Differential Lockdown Kit is designed to significantly reduce differential movement by reinforcing the factory rear differential mounting point. The precision-machined billet insert fills the voids in the factory rubber bushing, dramatically limiting deflection while maintaining the majority of the OEM ride quality and compliance.

The result is a more planted and predictable rear end, improved power transfer to the ground, reduced driveline shock, and less differential movement under high-load conditions.

Unlike solid-mounted solutions, the VTT Lockdown Kit retains the factory bushing while reinforcing it, providing an excellent balance between performance and daily drivability.

VTT F9X M5/M8 Rear Differential Front Bushing Insert Kit

Want to tighten up the differential on your F9X M5 or M8 and eliminate unwanted differential movement during hard launches, aggressive driving, or cornering? VTT has you covered with our Billet Differential Insert Kit.

Precision CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized black for a durable, corrosion-resistant finish, these inserts are designed to fill the voids in the factory differential bushings, significantly reducing differential movement while maintaining excellent street manners and OEM-like ride quality.

The result is improved drivetrain stability, more consistent launches, reduced wheel hop, better power transfer to the pavement, and a more connected feel during acceleration and cornering. This is especially beneficial on tuned and high-horsepower vehicles where differential movement becomes more pronounced under load.

Installation is straightforward and can be completed with basic hand tools. Simply remove the differential mounting bolts one at a time, lower the differential slightly, install the billet inserts, and replace the factory hardware with the supplied upgraded bolts and washers.

Kit Includes

  • 2 Front Billet Differential Inserts
  • 2 Hardened 49mm Steel Washers
  • 2 M12x1.5 x 110mm Mounting Bolts

VTT F9X M5/M8 Billet BMW Transfer Case Bushing Inserts

Stop the Flex. Launch with Confidence.

Soft bushings are the enemy of hard launches and drivetrain longevity. The factory BMW transfer case bushings on the F9X M5/M8 platform are notoriously soft—exactly the opposite of what you want when you're putting serious power to the ground.

Sure, you could replace the entire bushing with a solid one, but that often requires lowering or removing the transfer case—not to mention the added NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) that comes with it.

Our VTT transfer case bushing inserts offer a smarter solution: reduce bushing flex without sacrificing comfort. You keep smooth, quiet drivability around town and at idle—but when it’s time to launch, the transfer case stays planted.

Warranty: 12 Months

THE BUNDLE INCLUDES:

VTT F9X M5/M8 Billet Differential Lockdown Kit

Our lightweight billet lockdown plate reinforces the rear differential using existing factory mounting points while retaining the OEM differential and subframe bushings.

Unlike solutions that completely replace the factory bushings with solid mounts, the VTT Lockdown Kit allows you to retain the compliance BMW engineered into the chassis while dramatically reducing unwanted differential movement.

  • Lightweight billet aluminum construction
  • Approximately 5-minute installation
  • Uses existing factory mounting locations
  • Retains factory differential and subframe bushings
  • No exhaust removal required for installation
  • Reduces differential movement under acceleration and deceleration
  • Improves power transfer and drivetrain response

VTT F9X M5/M8 Rear Differential Front Bushing Insert Kit

The factory front differential bushings are designed with significant compliance. Under hard acceleration, especially on modified and high-horsepower vehicles, this allows the differential to move considerably within the subframe.

Our precision-machined billet inserts press into the existing factory bushings, filling the open areas of the OEM bushing and significantly reducing movement without requiring complete bushing replacement.

The kit includes:

  • Two precision-machined billet front bushing inserts
  • Two 46mm hardened washers
  • Retains the factory bushings
  • Significantly reduces front differential movement
  • Improved drivetrain stability and power transfer

VTT F9X M5/M8 Rear Differential Rear Bushing Insert Kit

The rear differential bushing is another major source of drivetrain movement. This billet insert works with the factory rear bushing to remove excess compliance and further stabilize the differential under load.

⚠️ NVH DISCLAIMER

Any product designed to stiffen drivetrain mounting points or reduce drivetrain movement has the potential to increase NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness).

We have sold hundreds of VTT drivetrain inserts and lockdown components, and most customers report little to no noticeable increase in NVH. However, some vehicles may experience an increase depending on the condition of the factory bushings, vehicle configuration, installation, modifications, and individual sensitivity.

These products are specifically designed to reduce movement in components that are mounted using compliant factory bushings. Some additional transmission of drivetrain noise or vibration is therefore possible and should be considered normal for this type of modification.

VTT cannot guarantee zero increase in NVH. Returns due to NVH will not be accepted once any component has been installed.

⚠️ INSTALLATION & VEHICLE MODIFICATION NOTICE

Vehicle configurations and aftermarket components can vary significantly. It is the installer’s responsibility to verify proper clearance and installation of all components.

Any modifications required due to aftermarket exhaust systems, drivetrain components, chassis modifications, or other non-factory equipment are the responsibility of the customer/installer.

Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with BMW drivetrain and suspension components.

Lock it down. Put the power to the ground.
