Just wondered who made the originals or what people are using at the minute and from where.
Is it lemforda for the bushes and FAG for the bearings?

My bushes were a mixture of Lemforder, Meyle and Febi; all OEM standard, and just what the supplier had in stock at the time. No noticeable difference in quality.
Yes, FAG are the OEM bearing manufacturers.

Think SKF might of been an OEM supplier of bearings as well.

I would be fitting Lemforder beam bushes (same as BMW supplied but less than half price) ECP supply them, with bush fillers
Poly trailing arm bushes, ebay, I like these - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-E30-3-Ser ... 4d09dd0aa8
They are a single piece bush, most others seem to be in two half's which is unnecessary IMO
