There is a few things you can look for. One is all the relief holes the 96+ has over the 95, that was my first clue it wasn't right.



Then I laid one on top of the other because I know the biggest effect the 96+ has is the caster built into the arm. As you can see, they're SIGNIFICANTLY different.

Holy shit that's not even close.

[IronFreak]

Yeah no kidding, so im on the hunt for a new one. If anyone reading this wants to hook a brother up let me know!!!

[Vtec?lol]

Damn. That picture should be in the dictionary for the definition.
That sucks. You get in touch with the guy that sold them to you?

[IronFreak]

Yeah, he was cool and sent me a refund. I actually just bought another one off Bimmerforums so I'm all good now!

[Larzzz]

Im off all week next week and need to come check out the progress!

[IronFreak]

Not much to see right now.........my basement project has overflowed in to the garage.....

[unloadedak]

this thread is worthless without progress.

[kingston]

Indeed. Isn't the basement remodel done yet? ;)

[IronFreak]

It's getting close, the problem is I'm a the point in the project were I have to rely on other contractors....no one seems to be quite as "in tune" on this as me.....Two different people from the flooring place have had to come out this week....just to tell me that the flooring I was going to use, I can't now. So I get to spend more time picking something else out.

[kingston]

WTF? Why can't you use it?

[IronFreak]

Well a small update.......

I bought some style 32's locally for a really good price. I was thinking about keeping them but they were a squared set so I tossed them up on some forums to see the interested I'd get, flipped them with $200 in profit!

So............

The final piece of my 5-lug are in the mail on there way here. I have band SPANKIN new Koni's for the front showing up today, and M3 coilover setup from GC showing up Friday...hopefully.

Could be a good weekend!
