    new treehouse eyeball arms

    so im starting to see these new treehouse eyeball arms for replacing the lollipop design lower control arm bushing. anyone hear anything about them being able to fit and work with the 318ti? i have a 95 and rebuilding my frint end and figured those would be awesome! if anyone has heard of them and how they work with that car please let me know.

      These are nothing new, just FYI. People have been running them for years and years.
