    Rack Doctor seems to have decent reviews. We installed two E36 racks from them and both had small issues. 1st rack had loose line which obviously leaked - tightened it up and had no problems. 2nd rack had loose inner tie rod. Again, tightened after issue was found and seems OK. So my advice is to double check every single fitting, screw, bolt, nut and everything that can be loose before installing it.

      I have a RackDoctor E36 rack and it seems pretty good so far. I've been using it for a few months now and the only thing I've noticed is the wheel does not return to center as easily as it did before the swap. That could be due to the old rack being worn and therefore a bit loose, however.

          Rockauto has new racks from AAE. No core charge which is nice. I have the Z3 in mine. Works great but I've only had it on about 2 months.
