    hit 42k suspension work??

    I just hit about 42k miles.. got it with 23535 but with 7 months of everyday driving has gotten the miles higher... smiles alll the way though.. anyways. i just ordered rtab with GC tabs. anyother suspension parts i should look into or change out.. so far all i did suspension wise is.. UUC swaybarbarians kit, front GC swaybar links,and AA front strut bar. rtab are going on soon as they get here. anything im missing.. any other bushings i should change?... have you guys tried any poly or solid bushings?...



    oh ya.. im also redoing my brakes.. stock rear rotors euro floating fronts and axxis ults. ft and bk. i was wondering if i should get these caliper guides that bav auto sells.. i think they're also sold by turner.... and maybe ate blue fluids?? sorry for so many Qs but i like to keep my car maintained.. i wanted to buy a 97-99 M3 4dr auto for my sister but ALL the ones ive seen were SO dirty, unmaintained, r8ped... or am i just anal?? :clap:

    Are you going to upgrade your shocks/springs? I have heard that doing sways w/o upgrading your other suspension componets could actually lead to loss of traction and grip. If not, you should do the shocks, factory shocks tend to get weak at that milage.



    May as well do the RSM's too, just to be safe. I just flushed my brakes last night actually, but I put DOT4 back in them since I don't track the car. That was a nightmare cause when I flushed my clutch cyl.. the damn thing stayed to the floor... :banghead:.



    I don't think you'll see much difference with the calliper guides.. are you planning on doing some extreme braking or what?

      You need to dial in your suspension before doing sways or will actually hurt the setup more than help. Sways limit the travel of the suspension - therefore dialing in the correct spring/shock/strut combo should be done before installing sways.
