It's all home brew stuff. The front is e46 control arms with sleeved strut tubes (1.5" longer) and vert springs. The front ball joints are pretty much maxed out at full droop. The rear is a modified subframe with diff mount to match, keeping the cv's flat at ride height as well as the trailing arms.
I'm cycling about 7 inches of travel up front and a bit over 8 in the rear. The rear will tuck the white letters without flinching.
Keep in mind there was a lot of trimming to keep everything clear of the 30's
hey I was wondering if you could send some pictures of your suspension components for a fellow off road E30 brother . I have some experience fabricating and as an engineer I like to have the most optimal design so I wanted to see how you got the CVs and axles nearly flat at that ride height as well as if you have bump stops or limiting straps or what. I would love to see the front set up as well but im mostly interested in the rear suspension.
thanks
Shawn
