View Full Version : front bilsteins FS
gabmwdrvr 12-02-2007, 10:05 PM I'm surprised nobody has bid on these. Unfortunately they do not fit my '82, otherwise I would place a bid.

onesimo58 12-03-2007, 03:35 AM I might be interested. Does anyone know if they are sports or HD's
Layne 12-03-2007, 09:37 AM I don't think they'll fit your car. The listing is not right because the same shock won't fit a '77 and '78. '77s (USA) and 323's share the same shocks, and '78-'83 320i's have another one. I'm not positive about your euro 318 but I suspect it has the lighter duty struts.
gabmwdrvr 12-03-2007, 10:21 AM The listing says they were off a 10/76 320 which means these are probably the beefier 323 style shocks. Somebody got a great deal if they are really in good condition.
blitzed310 12-03-2007, 01:53 PM Crap. I dont look at eBay as much as I should.
onesimo58 12-03-2007, 02:02 PM I am the lucky buyer. If it turns out that i cant use them on my car (it sounds like that is what is going to happen) Ill keep them until someone on here needs them. I figured what the hell. $25 plus shipping. I happened to have that much burning a hole in my pocket. If they dont work its not a big lose because someone on here will want them eventually.
blitzed310 12-03-2007, 02:13 PM Well they are not going to fit. I can paypal you the cost and just give the seller my shipping information, so you dont have to waste the money on shipping. Like the seller said the last month E21 these can be used on is 10/76. Yours was obviously built after that.
Im not just saying what the seller has said, this is fact, they will not fit your application. I need these if you don't want them.
gabmwdrvr 12-03-2007, 02:42 PM I am glad somebody here snatched them. I even e-mailed the guy to ask about them. That price was just too good. I'm still saving up to get a set for mine.
onesimo58 12-03-2007, 03:45 PM I dont use pay pal and about 15 min ago I was at the post office mailing the money order. But Im still willing to work with you. In this thread http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=863619
you mention that you have a set of bav auto lowering springs for sale. If you still have those I am interested in them. A trade involving bilstien shocks, lowering springs, and some money. With these three factors Im sure we can figure something out.

There is a member on here that previously asked if he could purchase the springs after the Holidays. If that member stills wants them I am obligated to hold them for him. If not then we will make a deal. Otherwise, I'll just pay you for them.
Marquinho 12-03-2007, 04:08 PM Don't want to get in the middle of anything, but I can certainly use the shocks (I'm changing to 79 euro 323 suspension all around in my 82 320i). If you guys don't come to a mutual agreement, kindly consider me as you fall back option to sell the shocks to.
Thanks!

I will keep you in mind but it does sound like cj really wants them. If you happen to have other suspension goodies lying around that would make for a cool trade too. Except for a rear sway bar my suspension is completely stock. Because your car is gorgeous and it is in a commercial i would really like to have a piece that was once used on your car on mine. You want these really bad and I want a piece of your car on mine. Sounds kind of weird but Im sure you understand.

Not nuts (I figured someone would take that the wrong way) I just happen to love e21's. That is one of the most well know e21's around. I envy it greatly. Any one who does not is probably not an e21 enthusiast.
busemans 12-04-2007, 08:33 PM i'll take lowering springs from someone for christmas :) :)
