I want to have pos camber when I ride high height and normal to mabey slighty neg camber when I'm riding real low . The front I'm gonna have to build my own camber plate all the way to the outer corner for the front camber . Has anyone have any ideas ? __________________ was the 1 an only Bagged Ti on 19's!! | | | 08-13-2010, 12:31 AM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: MD/PA/DC Posts: 1,629 | I wonder with those offset bushings what is done with the diff, if it raises the subframe, it will raise the diff in the front and not in the rear mount (remedied with some cutting probably) , and then there is the driveshaft alignment issues that would result from that... With your extreme setup, I would just cut the mounts and move them-basically re-engineer the arms and subframe to work in that huge range. __________________ No more ti.

The bushings are supposed to be great for super low cars. akg motorsport has the bushings and weld in kit. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 08-13-2010, 04:19 AM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Elizabeth City, NC Posts: 3,877 | That's pretty slick dave, did you use a Bridgeport to make the brackets? For those without mad machining skills, the guy who runs E30tech.com sells the brackets by themselves for $42 or $80 depending on how many adjustments you want (camber/toe) and then just buy those 5 series bolts. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 08-14-2010, 12:43 AM | #8 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: MD/PA/DC Posts: 1,629 | Quote: Originally Posted by spidertri E30 guys just get longer bolts and space the diff down 12mm with washers.

What you need to do it cut the mounts off and set it up to work with the amount of travel you are planning. I don't think it will be easy since the arms are designed to work in a small arc, and to change camber in that arc. So, you are fighting a lot of german engineering. __________________ No more ti. | | | 08-25-2010, 04:24 PM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: Merritt Island, FL Posts: 351 | Bimmerworld Camber Plates Fits entirely within the stock reinforcements, and is adjustable through a range of 0.5 to -2.6, and can be reversed for zero camber like the stock 96-99 M3. No bearings, and is rebuildable unlike the stock parts.

They are thinner on the top to move the subframe higher up, and the spacer/washer goes on the bottom to compensate for the upward move. I guess in theory you could cut the center of the factory bushings shorter to pull the frame up higher. I'd just buy the bushings. Thye aren't much more than a regular set of poly's. __________________ No more ti. | | | 09-14-2010, 04:19 AM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Louisiana Posts: 1,093 | well thanks! i guess its easier to do that .. __________________ was the 1 an only Bagged Ti on 19's!! | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | Similar Threads | Thread | Thread Starter | Forum | Replies | Last Post | Camber Kit | nakadian | Suspension | 9 | 01-26-2010 06:27 AM | Camber: How much is too much? | spidertri | Lounge | 8 | 10-05-2009 04:30 AM | camber | ill_black_assassin | Suspension | 11 | 01-30-2007 01:00 PM | Camber Kit | L84THSKY | Suspension | 10 | 03-11-2006 03:22 AM | Camber kit | M98318ti | Suspension | 6 | 04-15-2005 06:22 AM | |
