Rear Right Control Arm

Post Wed Mar 08, 2006 3:28 pm

Ok Ladies, quick Question, just need to make sure that the rear control arms are the same, on all the e30 models. See Pick below. My rear rhd one is bent and giving me bad toe in.
Thanks

I can only think that the only difference's would be between, Drum, Disk and M3.

Edit:

It looks like you can get ABS and Non-ABS Types...

You can get two types of arms, one for ABS and one for Non-ABS. The difference being is that the ABS one has the hole for the sensor. The ABS sensor picks up of the driveshaft.

Where the wheel bolts on will be the same.

The only problem i could see you having is if there is a difference in bearings for a Non-ABS driveshaft over a ABS driveshaft.
