    Z3 M Roadster Front Spindles

    Simple question.. Does anyone know if the front spindles / suspension from a 99 M Roadster has the same geometery as the 5 lug spindles from a 96-99 M3?

    As far as I know they are the same parts. Quick search on Real OEM agrees

          I know I am bringing this back from the dead but I will have the complete front suspension from a 1999 m roadster very shortly. It has been established that the spindle is the same but I noticed that the strut tube has a different part number between the e36 and the m roadster. Can the m roadster front strut tubes be used in the e30? do they bolt up?

                I had a used set of M roadster struts, and one of them had a longer shaft in it for some reason. I dont know if they both came out of a roadster or if one was from a coupe etc... but just something to look for
