Are all E30 front kingpins the same? I'm aware that the bolt-on bottom piece of them is different on the M3 to the 325/320 etc, but the actual kingpin looks identical at first glance.

Reason I ask, the leg one one of my M3 kingpins has seen better days where the retaining plate screws in for the strut insert.

And i've got 2 spare kingpins from the base car of the project that appear to be in excellent condition winkeye
