    rear shock mount failure




    i put these on today and not even 150 miles later the pass side pops out.

    my friend is claiming they were installed wrong, but I dont see how.

    r3v insight?

    I think in the mean time im going to grab some aftermarket ones, any recommendations?

          I bet you are missing the washer that goes below the RSM.

              Yup that's a failure.

              E46 M3 Vert RSMs ftw.

                              True. Good luck fitting the rubber bushing back in the holder...
                              Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

                                      Use lots of diswasher soap. And rinse thoroughly after the bushing is in. Remove any trace of soap with water.

                                          The Bimmerworld Lifetime RSM's are the same design as stock E46 RSM's, and have a lifetime guarantee, I love them.
