Put them on my 97 M3 in november and have put maybe 1500 miles on them. These bushings were really easy to install, they just slide right on the control arm.

$120 obo + shipping.

are the internal bushings replaceable, or do you have to buy a whole new unit when you want to refresh? i may be interested...

AFAIK, they're not replaceable. Then again, it's a very thin delrin bushing inside the metal arm, so it shouldn't need to be replaced any time soon.

Do these place the pivot in an offset position ala 95 M3?

They do in fact add more caster to the geometry. I'm not sure how it compares to using other offset bushings, but it's the same idea.

Sale pending...

Just curious as I was thinking about a similar setup- Are they that much harsher than the rubber ones? What did you end up replacing with? I may be interested if the other party falls through.

Yes, those bushings are replaceable. You can get replacement bushings from Treehouse.

payment sent, thanks!

Why are you selling? How where they on the road? Did they help with the steering and geometry of the car?

Thanks

They were tolerable (for me) on local roads. Not a big deal at all, really save for things like railroad tracks, etc. I'm selling basically b/c of legality issues for auto-x use. The performance was pretty friggin good with these. Steering felt great. Very responsive, lots of feedback. The poly bushings I put in are noticeably softer both in terms of comfort and also performance. As for geometry, they definitely added caster and likely affected camber, though I think I was still within spec (or close to it). I'm running the Tein SS kit, so your set up may see different results.

:alright


can't wait

pdub, I've heard the additional caster with these on 96+ M3's can cause rubbing/interference issues with the tire now located further forward? Especially when turning a lowered car with wide tires in autox. Did you see any of this? I actually was going to buy them new but this issue was holding me back. Benny what model year is your M3? Lettuce no your findings after time driving with them!

I have stock wheels and stock tire size all around on my 97 and I'm running the Tein SS kit. My car is pretty low, but not slammed and far from unstreetable. I didn't experience ANY rubbing with these bushings. That could depend a lot on the tire though. Some have a more squared-off shoulder than others and it also depends on how hard you push the car. I only got these around thanksgiving and as such haven't been able to auto-x with them yet.
