Sam - I believe you can use E34 struts just fine. Put E28 top hats on the rear, and for the front, you have to use E34 dogbones (part bolted to the bottom of the strut) and E34 suspension parts (tie rods/control arms etc)
I have a front and rear left side KW coil overs that you can play around with, but i'd need them back!

Problem is, I sold my E34 parts car, since I am looking for a lower mileage alusil M60, not a nikasil w/ 200k on it.
So when I pick up another E34 or E32, I just might take you up on your offer!

No shortened struts or anything.... and he still has problems going into driveways...
those cars arent really made for being slammed (in my opinion)
Shut up ro ro. haha. e28s shudnt be slammed? i seee... lol:hitler:

Held up an e30 insert next to the e28 and the e30 was about an inch shorter. Food for thought.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
