What happened to Treehouse CABs?

Those appear to be "centered", much like the stock non-m e30 location.

When I'm ready for replacing control arms, I'm going with the solid rubber centered bushings. Got them and a spare set of control arms for $30. Couldn't go wrong.

Not sure what you mean I am able to add them to cart and they say in stock.

This is what you want

Same as TreeHouse but you can get replaceable bushings for the Bimmerworld ones. The e36/e30 are the same thing, and they're not centered, they're offset.

**IronFreak** · 06-15-2015, 11:04 AM

And they save you $30

Those use the stock "lollipop" brackets, which don't offer enough clearance for my exhaust. Hence why I need the solid Treehouse-style design. Thanks though.

I saw those, very tempted. So e36 fitment = e30 fitment? No different?

Why not use the akg adjustable ones? I mean yea they may be for track but they will work

Kind of.....They're going to be offset, which would add some caster. they'd be like the e30m3 offset bushings Condor and others sell. Bolt up wise they're no different. They will allow for more room.

I had these but sold them and picked up some adjustable Lcabs from SLR. were the same price at the time. Also AKG makes some as well. They're just solid spherical bearings, harsh, but probably not much more that these guys would be.

Yep, e30, e36 and z3 are all the same fitment.

Thanks for editing my comment, but I was already fully aware of the interchange. I was stating the fact that the link that was given above my post clearly stated that they were centered and not offset solid lollipops.
