These came out better than I was expecting. Millway monoballs on stock front tension arms.

How did you get the arms so shiny?

[QUOTE=WrathOTM;30211243]Bunch of time with the die grinders, carbide burrs, sanding discs, and sanding wheels followed by hand sanding down to 1500 grit, topped off with Simichrome polish.

So, other than the slightly stiffer bearing, is there no real difference between the stock and M3/TRW front tension arms (therefore monoball-upgrading the stock is probably the cheaper option)?

Do you and your 20-ton press make house calls?
Also, link to the Millway bushings for those who have poor link-fu: https://www.millway.se/front-control...w-e8x-e9x.html (corrected as I accidentally linked to the F82 version) [EDIT: the press is only $250 + tax...never mind]

Stock.
I like the booth. Sets up and tears down minutes. Way easier than plastic sheeting and duct tape in the garage.

Is that the 13x8 Vevor/Amazon one?
So this means you are working on the all rose-joint/bearing setup for your 1er?

Yeah, I'm slowly getting back on the new suspension. Owing to my ///M rear camber arms Barry at 3DM had to put together a hybrid Ohlins kit for me out of spare parts and he just notified me that shipping was imminent. I still have to finish up the rear suspension carrier, too, but life keeps interfering with my plans. Hopefully I'll get it done in the coming weeks. I'd like to do the full install in the fall when it's cooler in the garage. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09F2RQ7NV...roduct_details

Beautiful car, excellent work!
I had a question about adding lumbar support. Could you shed some light on what you had to do to get that working? I recently swapped from heated power comfort seats to heated power sport seats. The sport seats have the additional features of lumbar and adjustable bolsters. I know from comparing the main seat connectors that I'm missing a few wires, but I'm not sure where to start. I know I probably need the vehicle side harness for a car with those features, but was also thinking maybe I could splice something in. |
