95 E36 M3 coupe front suspension

[V'NOLAN]

Hi guys

I need some help, I need to change my rack ends, tyrod ends, control arms and bushes

Oem pricing is ridiculous. Has anyone used beemow's, gold wagon or any other brand and how do they compare???

Also does any of the other e36 models parts fit on the e36 M ?

:argh:

on teh fit check OEM and part numbers....bemows is ok, who will do teh work for u?

From what I remember, not much in the front is shared with regular e36. Suspension refresh is needed though, the cars are getting old. Might as well check on shocks and everything rubber in the rear at the same time.

hmmm could cost a bit!

Contact Teknorot. I dont have their number unfortunately...(google) They have quality replacement parts for E36 at good prices.

I've just bought all the parts you mentioned above. Quality looks very decent. Control arms are steel though...not ally like the original M3 ones.

I know of guys using these parts on their race cars with no issues at all.

Only e30 control arms were alu as far as I can remember.

Only e30 control arms were alu as far as I can remember.

I could be mistaken then...I thought the E36 M3 also had them, I know the E46 M3 definitely has aluminium as well....

Yeah e46 got that whole weird batarang thing going.
