M3 Upper & Lowerr control arms with stock shocks?
M3 Upper & Lowerr control arms with stock shocks?
I am in the process of redoing my suspension....way to much power LOL!! I have a wavetrac/Quaife LSD being ordered tuesday (havent decided on wich one yet) and I have M3 Upper & Lower control arms also on the way (already ordered). They say they add a additional .75 of camber.....On my stock setup I removed the adjusting nipple and I am maxed out on camber I believe .85 and wondered if the M3 arms add aditional .75 to the maxed out stock camber or to just the stock adjustment. What I need to know is can I install these control arms with stock shocks and H&R springs or woulds camber plates be needed, if so I will wait because I will be getting BC BR coilovers/hotchkis sport sway bars in a month, I know the stock shocks + H&R springs suck LOL!! I just do not like waiting and want to install these control arms ASAP LOL!!

Doing the control arms with stock springs/dampers won't hurt anything. You won't notice a TON of difference, but it should be noticeable.

Consider waiting to install everything at the same time. That will save time and money, and only require one alignment, instead of two.
