They're for an E30, and they are way too stiff.. what's wrong with buying AKG/PF/OEM new?? Surely they're not too expensive..?

if you have a 95, treehouse racing fcabs are the only way to go. have them, love them, wouldn't use anything else (with my current suspension setup)

Don't take the responses personally. We were all new at some point. Best way to learn is to hang out and absorb information but if you need something pronto then definitely ask.

You get what you pay for and investing in proven names like AKG, Powerflex, or OEM means that you can be sure they will be reliable for a long while. Saving $50 in the short term might seem sensible but if the bushing fails and you have to go in a replace it again after 5,000 miles, you've just lost money.



This is even more so the case if you are dealing with something like the Rear Trailing Arm bushings where each time you change those out, you have to get an alignment so you really don't want to have to do that too often.

I ran Treehouse on my 97, and 05 M3's and absolutely love their product.


Always loved Powerflex too, but I must say AKG is where it's at! Good prices, great communication, fast shipping, and a top notch product!


For me


1. Treehouse Fcabs (I love the design)

2. AKG

3. Powerflex

don't forget about the Bimmerworld Treehouse-esc LCABs!

Why do you have to get the car on the ground fast when replacing FCABs? What happens if you take all day?
