WTB: E90 RWD Stock Suspension

Drifter2090 · 08-18-2024, 08:05 AM

Looking for stock struts/shocks in good working condition for my little sisters 323i rwd. Any 328i strut/shocks should fit.

Thought I'd see what's out there before I order new.

As you noted, the rear suspension is the same whether it be RWD or Xdrive. Plan to replace the hardware top and bottom as well. I used the Monroe top hardware and it seemed fine and cheaper than the German alternatives. I used a new OEM bottom rubber mount. I would look at Bilstein B4 if she want to stay stock+ or KV-1/ST if she wants to upgrade to coilovers.

Appreciate the help.

Yeah I just ordered all new shocks/struts/hardware and top hats (Sachs) hopefully she gets a couple more years out of them!
