    Urethane Sway Bar Bushings

    Does anyone know where I can get Urethane Sway Bar Bushings in 21mm and 14.5mm. I have the M3 and Cabrio sways to put on and I want to upgrade the bushings as I need new rubber ones anyways.


    has a 14.5mm for the 5er. Do you think that this will work? What would I use for the front?

    Nevermind...I just called Ireland Engineering and he is ordering me a set. He can apparently get them made in any size.

            Thanks Ely, but isn't $80 kinda steep. I can get the whole Ireland Engineering reinforced sway bar bracket and urethane bushings for $120

                Should I replace the End links when doing this as well? I'm sure that the original ones are on there and are 19 years old now.

                  I'd go for the Stronger Ireland Mounts.

                    Yeah, I think for $40 more it would definately be worth it...plus once you get those mounts, I can switch out for $10 a pair bushings later if I upgrade to a thicker bar, b/c the mounts use a standard bushing instead of BMW one.

                      I just ordered the reinforcement kit w/ urethane bushings today! They're shipping out on monday. Add the new endlinks shipping from BMA on Monday and I'm set. I actually have a few days off this coming week so I hope they hurry up and get here.

                      Anybody done the swap and have any hint/tips that aren't part of the normal process?
