M3 Droplinks

Post Mon Sep 05, 2005 1:03 pm

I'm currently fitting M3 running gear to my 318is and have a question about the droplinks..

On my car, which is lowered slightly with H&R springs, the droplinks seem to sit back at quite an angle. Almost as if the tangs on the strut they bolt to are on the wrong side. I'd have thought they'd want to be as near to perpendicular to the anti roll bar as possible when the suspension is at partial bump/droop to increase their effect during cornering...

Is this correct or are mine too long/misplaced/etc...

Does anyone have any pics?

Many thanks.

Are they too far angles front to back or side to side.

Either way there are many reasons why this could happen.

Looking at them when the car is on the ground, the droplinks now follow the same angle at which the strut makes.. Makes sense, the load on the strut will load the ARB in the same way.

Panic over!

Thanks guys..
