Paru, I would suggest you look at Meyle HD or Lemforder (OEM equivalent or better).. I imagine E39 parts are harder to source, perhaps @"Kyle" or @"Peter@AEW" can assist with recommendations?

Chat to @"Kavi4GP" for the lemforder bits, or as @"KPM3_30" advised, Meyle HD can be sourced from Goldwagen.

@"KPM3_30" @"Kyle" thanks guys.

I have tried Goldwagon for the Meyle HD. They dont have any stock. Theres another brand called TRF but hey im not sure about the quality.

Next option will be Lemforder. I tried ZF here in Durban as they are the agents, they put me onto Diesel Electric :dunnoanymore:

So im running in circles here.  :fencelook:

Will try @"Kavi4GP"

Howsit, What can I help with?

Generally if ZF has it I can get it, if its in Germany takes about 10 to 15 days , I have a few trans and few bushes coming in next week. so can look into it
