Project 59: Front Suspension Overhaul

BMW E36 (1992-00)

Front Suspension Overhaul Kits
Suspension overhaul can be a fairly involved project if not planned out thoroughly. Reduce the hassle of parts selection by simply choosing one of these convenient kits. Included in these kits are the control arms, wishbone brackets & bushings, tie rods & boots, steering coupler, and sway bar drop links. Note that sway bar bushings are not included (but listed below instead) due to the various different sizes of sway bars available on these cars from the factory.

Sway Bar Mounting Bushings
Perhaps the best thing that you can do to help an aging suspension is to replace old, brittle bushings with new ones. Newer bushings are certainly an improvement over your 10+ year old rubber ones. Check your car prior to ordering - it is common to find upgraded and non-stock sway bars on older cars. While you're in there, replace older sway bar brackets and fasteners that may be missing or damaged. If you are experiencing strange rattles from your rear suspension or bizarre handling characteristic, then you may have a broken rear sway bar bracket.

Front Control Arms
Older, possibly bent A-arms may lead to premature tire failure, strange alignment and steering problems. Replace your damaged one with a new unit, and have your BMW be A-OK! How can you tell if your A-arms are bent? In most cases, it's a bit difficult. Accidents where the front end takes a hit are sure to place small bends on your A-arms that you probably can't feel. If you car has trouble being aligned straight, then there might be a chance that your A-arms are bent. Ask your alignment expert for an opinion, and make sure that you check the visible condition of the arms as well. Driving over large potholes can easily damage your arms, as well as hitting curbs. Used ones are a good buy, but you can't easily tell if they are straight unless you precisely measure them or place them on a car.

Rear Trailing Arms
The trailing arm acts as a flexible link between the chassis and the wheel, It allows travel in the suspension when you go over a bump or pothole in the road. Over time, trailing arms can be bent or broken, causing unpredictable handling from the rear of your car. If your trailing arms are bent or damaged, replace them today and bring back that famous handling that your BMW is known for.

Tie Rods and Hardware
Old tie rod ends can cause pulling when braking, can increase tire wear, and also negatively affect the stiffness of the steering. Replace yours with new ones and eliminate 'loosey-goosey' steering. Our tie rods include a new castellated nut for installation, but do not include the cotter pin.

Control Arms
Older, possibly bent A-arms may lead to premature tire failure, or strange alignment and steering problems. Replace your damaged one with a new unit, and have your BMW be A-OK! How can you tell if your A-arms are bent? In most cases, it's a bit difficult. Accidents where the front end takes a hit are sure to place small bends on your A-arms that you probably can't feel. If you car has trouble being aligned straight, then there might be a chance that your A-arms are bent. Ask your alignment expert for an opinion, and make sure that you check the visible condition of the arms as well. Driving over large pot-holes can easily damage your arms, as well as hitting curbs. Used ones are a good buy, but you can't easily tell if they are straight unless you precisely measure them or place them on a car.
Note: Control arms come with ball joints pre-installed. Rear control arm mounts are not included

Trailing Arms
The trailing arm acts as a flexible link between the chassis and the road wheel, allowing travel in the suspension when you go over a bump or pothole in the road. Over time, trailing arms can be bent or broken, causing unpredictable handling from the rear of your car. If your trailing arms are bent or damaged, replace them today and bring back that famous handling that your BMW is known for.

Front Sway Bar End Links
Perhaps the best thing that you can do to help an aging suspension is to replace old, brittle bushings with new high-tech, space-age, low-fat, super-duper ones. The newer bushings are made from better materials and will not wear out as easily as 25+ year old rubber ones. Check your car prior to ordering - it is common to find upgraded and non-stock sway bars on older cars. While you're in there, replace older sway bar brackets and fasteners that may be missing or damaged.

If you are experiencing strange rattles from your rear suspension or bizarre handling characteristics, then you may have a broken rear sway bar bracket.
