Sway bar stayed stock, polyurethane bushings are a bit of an upgrade. Went with stock steel arms. Pretty happy with how it feels :)

No. There was a lot more work done. The fan clutch was replaced. The drive shaft coupling and all the power sterring lines were replaced too. |

i guess its a BMW thing. Or just the driving...Our 01 330's front bushings just went out also. Had them replaced. But the stealership only charged 400~
I think my bushings just went out AGAIN! I gotta get some steel bushings. |
