Who here has lowered their E36?

I definitely agree with the both of you, on the bushings. I'll search for them, before I purchase the kit. What linkages are there for my car?

I checked with Bavauto, they have all replacement parts, for the kit I was telling the group about. Also, a company in Germany builds them, to their specs.

Screw bavauto, go with autohausaz. Much better prices and they carry lemfoerder (sp)

i called bavauto about springs and shocks and they never said anything about reinforcement plates when you lower the car?
they have a kit by sach that i was interested in but i wanna do this right one time and not have to pull things apart to do it over again?

Yea, I had to ask bavauto about the reinforcement plates. The only I knew about them, was from this forum...thanks. However, they do suggest replacing them, since you already in there. I'll have to check out autohausz...it looks like a search engine???

Here are the E36 reinforcing plates:

Turner Motorsports

They do require completely dropping the rear subframe and gas tank, and welding in....

I got Eibach Sportline springs w/ Bilstein shocks. Drop is nice and low, and handles excellent along with m3 lightweight wrapped in falken tires.
