    I have never personally gotten a complaint about suspension setting moving with the eccentric style setup. The main advantage I see is the ability to change suspension settings at the track but who actually does that on a E30? There is more adjustment too but I dont think its good to mis-align the control arm bushings more than the eccentric hardware allows. If somebody wants the posi lock style they can buy it off Ireland and Ill be glad to weld it up for them. If anybody does have an issue please send me a PM.
    Well consider this your first complaint. I am NOT easy on my car by any stretch of the imagination, but my adjusters slip and it's happened more than once. I'm going to the posi-lock style pretty soon.

      Well thanks for being honest about the NOT being easy on your car. I wanna hear more about your slipping experience, maybe I can figure out a way to better my product. PM sent.

      I still have a subframe available.

        I wanna know where anyone plans on getting posi lock style adjusters. Jeff Ireland told me through email that they would not be making them in the near future. He didn't make it clear as to how long "near future" is, but I got the idea that he was telling me I shouldn't be waiting for his product...

          Checked Irelands site and the Posi-Locks are listed as out of stock. Like I said I will gladly do them for people if they provide the kit. Otherwise I feel more comfortable using hardware designed and made by BMW.

                    Hey guys sorry to be off the radar lately I hope to change that soon. I have been moving my shop and all my tools are in storage. The concrete on my new shop will be laid and set by the end of September and I will be able to resume soon after. The good news is my new larger shop space will allow me to create other E30 products and make my subframes even better. This winter I plan to get a CNC mill and start developing sweet parts for E30's and other vintage BMWs. I have a list for the guys that have PM'd me and will be getting subframes out in the order as recieved. I really enjoy being part of this forum and being able to provide a much needed service for these old BMWs. Hopefully in the future I can do even more.

                        Are you still needing cores? I bought one from you a while back and never sent my core in. Will you still accept it and refund the core charge?

                        Thanks,
                        G

                          hey is there any way to perm lock the adjustment or any special tool i can buy to stop the adjustment from coming out.
                          its come out 5 times now in the last 3 months and the shops keep banging me over the head each time i go there.

                          thanks in advance.
