    What happened to Treehouse CABs?

    I need to pick up a set to give me some more exhaust clearance, and they don't seem to be making them anymore. What gives?

    Solid bushings for optimal precision and alignment on the track. Offset bushing adds more caster & camber. Our #1 selling control arm bushing for track/race use!


    Can the e36 versions be used in their place?

    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.

          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.

              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.

                        Actually the quote function went crazy, thats not even your comment thats quoted. Cool on you for acting like a tool though.

                            HA! Sure did. Just realized my quote doesn't have my name in it. My bad.
