Control Arms, Tension Struts, Bushings
All removed from low mile vehicles, replaced with M3 control arms. One set removed from my E92 at around 50K miles. Second set removed from my E93 at around 60K miles, only have the left control arm and right tension strut for the e93 set. Brand new Deeza tension struts solid rubber (like meyle HD, better than stock), bought for my E93 but never installed. $30 a piece for the control arms and tension struts. $15 for the bushings.

http://www.oembimmerparts.com/BMW_E9...3577kitoem.htm It was a pretty good deal imo. I paid $333 last December. The only issue is that when I was reviewing the install process found here: http://blog.bavauto.com/14819/ it was mentioned that I should replace all of the locking nuts, but the kit only came with one nut per suspension piece. I guess they assumed that the nut on the other end of each piece would be reused. To be on the safe side, considering that this is the suspension we're talking about, I went ahead and ordered the other 4 locking nuts from Bavauto. It's BMW Part #31 10 6 755 474 in case you want to look it up elsewhere. I haven't had the chance to do the install yet, so I can't vouch for the before/after differences yet. I mainly decided to go this route since my bushings have leaked all of their fluid away, and since I'm replacing the control arms already(the ball joints can't be replaced separately), then may as well get the M3 upgrade. |
