What M3 parts don't need alignment?
Hi,
I borrowed this parts list from GreekboyD. Can someone please tell me what parts on here don't need alignment after install? Front sway bar - 31352283515 - assuming this doesn't Front lower wishbone/control arm (L) - 31102283577 Front lower wishbone/control arm (R) - 31102283578 Xenon regulation rod - 37142283867 Front tension strut (L) - 31102283575 Front tension strut (R) - 31102283576 Rear sway bar - 33552283655 - assuming this doesn't Rear subframe bushings - (front, 2X) - 33312283382) - (rear, 2X) - 33312283383) - - assuming this doesn't Rear guide rod (L) - 33322283547 Rear guide rod (R) - 33322283548 Rear upper link/wishbone (L) - 33322283545 Rear upper link/wishbone (R) - 33322283546 ABS sensor bracket - 34522283017 Megan Toe arms (Rear) I'd like to see if I can get anything installed without having to do an alignment, or if it's better to wait and do everything in one go... Many thanks. |

All of them except the front sway bar. The rear sway requires alignment because the rear subframe needs to be dropped to access it; same thing with the subframe bushings.
Absolutely wait until you have all the parts and pay for one alignment.

Only the ones you listed require dropping the subframe.
