Hi, im thinking of doing a rear brake disk conversion on my 320i and i know that the trailing arms need to be swapped. i just want to know if i need to use different drive shafts also ? will the 320i drive shafts fit in the new hubs ?
cheers

I was just about to say that they are all the same as I'm going to be doing this soon and was hoping my 320 shafts would fit straight in but I've just checked the part numbers and they appear to be different. Can anyone confirm this?

ABS ones are different to non-abs too I believe.

You wont have problems with drive shafts, they are interchangeable
