The first batch is ready now! Here is what is up for grabs:
1. Front sway bar bracket replacement kit - $60 / ea.
This is new brackets, bushings, and all hardware needed to replace both OEM front brackets. You will not be able to use the OEM bushings after installation as the factory mounts are replaced. Automatic transmission owners would have to relocate the transmission cooler lines, as the bracket they are mounted to on the frame rail needs to be removed for clearance. Note that the photo shows bushings with greasable zerk fittings. I think these are unnecessary and in a position where they could be broke off, and so the shipped units won't have them.
2. Rear sway bar bracket reinforcement kit - $30 / ea.
These are additions to the existing rear bracket to reinforce it. Use your own bushings. I've become aware than some early 533i chassis, and possibly early 633 CSi, use a different rear sway bar mount. The above parts only work with sway bar mounts for later models that look like this:
Installation will require metal working tools, a grinder and a welder at a minimum. Preferably a die grinder (smaller cutoff disks). For safety, the rear fuel tank needs to be dropped to install the rears.
In the interest of being fully up front, these have been in test on my car for the last several months, which is not a lot of time. However, I've had no issues, and the design approach isn't very complicated. The fronts are constructed out of 10 gauge (bit thicker than 1/8"), and the rears out of 12 gauge. I'll stand behind them, if they are welded in properly.
Shipping will be:
Rear only, up to 5 sets: $6
Single front and rear, or just front: $6
Multiple front and/or rear sets: $12
Will be shipped USPS Priority Mail. For now, please use PayPal to aaron@limitedslip.net with your address, quantites, and if fronts, your front sway bar diameter (22mm for ST bars, 25mm for m5 bars). Other diameters are possible, but these common ones will be stocked.
