    Where can I find a complete bushing set?

    I hope there wasnt a thread on this, I did a fairly thourough search. I've been checking many e30 websites for the sale of bushings, and it seems as though I may have to buy them individually, which would be a real pain in the ass. I was wondering if anyone sold a complete kit of bushings (preferably OEM rubber) for the e30. Even a semi-complete kit would be nice to have as I wouldnt have to make sure I order every single bushing that I need. And to clarify things a little bit for you, I want to replace every little peice of rubber on this car. rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, transmission, control arm, you name it. Please point me in the right direction.

        yeah, you're thinking more of a JC Whitney type situation, which would be the bomb, but BMW just doesn't roll that way. I wish they did, though.

            1) Go to real OEM or this other site

            2) Bring up exploded views of front/rear suspension.

            3) Copy/paste part numbers into an email for Patrick or Yves at BMA w/ shipping, billing, and cc info.

            4) Accept parts when they arrive and install.


            dude-srsly, if you're too lazy to pick out the parts you need, then you're probably too lazy to install them

              wait..

              shop at Pelican

              they've got more fuckin 'kits' than you can shake a stick at.

              (or, you could save money and buy from BMA..)

                Its different if you enjoy the work rather than revile it :p. also, i dont consider myself lazy in this manner, just forgetful. Thanks for the tip though.
