    suspension rebuild checklist( after search)

    Hello,
    I have been glued to my computer long enough

    H&R sports
    Bil sports
    M3 off set CAB
    RSM: what the most cost effective? E46?
    control arms:
    Replace ball joints or entire arms?

    also:



    The missing nut is from trying to install an IE strut bar that wouldnt fit...should I just go to the harware store and find the bolt( still got the nut) or order it or what?

    Can you guys think of anything else?
    im keeping stock sway bar for now endlinks maybe?
    Thanks

    well from what I have read it is better to replace the control arms them selfs not the ball joints. Because the control arms maybe bent and you will not be able to tell.

    Anyways I got some GC RSM but I believe e46, e36 and e30 are all the same. I would just go e30 anyways. As for the missing bolt I would ithor take one of the others to a fastner supplier and get a new one from them or order a OEM one. You will need new nuts as they are self locking and can only be used once.

    Other then that should be all good.

        hehe here is my list

        -AKG poly SFB, CAB, TAB, DIF bushes
        -Billie Sports Shocks
        -H&R Sports Springs
        -GC Touring Plates and RSM
        -New Control Arms and Tie Rods
        -New Brake Discs
        -Brake Rebuild Kit
        -Braided Brake lines
        -New Bearing front and rear
        -New sway bar links

        Everything came from Blunttech beside the stuff from AKG and GC. At the end of the day it all comes down to how much money you have, what is worn and needs replacing, what you want performance wise and how much time you have.
