Yes! What time do you think we should leave? We have 3 from my house at least + you. Trying to collect more. Is Simon going?
Damn you! That sounds maybe even better though!

Hydraulic Press in SB?
Anyone in town have a hydraulic press I could use to press in my FCABs coming in this week?
If not, anyone used a shop in town to get it done they can recommend?
Thanks guys!1989 BMW 325is Coupe - Alpine WhiteComment

You can do it without a press. Remove the old ones by cutting the sleeves with a hacksaw.
Press in the new ones usining a bench vice or a ball joint press from an auto parts store rental program.
As for shop recommendations to do it quick and cheap go to Dave's Auto Repair on Milpas. The owner Dave is a bit quirky but nice enough and will do a job like this in short order normally. Feel free to tell him Nick from autozone sent you! (This may or may not help with pricing lol)

Thanks Nick.
Rear is all done but I've hit an impasse I didn't think about. The car currently has Bilsteins and I need OEM strut collar nuts for the Konis.
Part # is 31321117376. Anyone happen to have a pair?
I thought I would finish up today but this may push me back a few days...:(1989 BMW 325is Coupe - Alpine WhiteComment
