E30 Suspension Bushings and Mounts

 Description:  Suspension mounts are designed to absorb the energy of the shocks and springs and isolate road harshness from the chassis. But over time the original rubber mounts will crumble and fail. We have stock mounts and bushings as well as a wide selection of upgraded and heavier-duty for performance street cars. We also offer a full selection of race only bushings and mounts. Simply choose your car below. Included here you will find rear shock tower mounts, front strut mounts, subframe mounts, lower control arm bushings, rear trailing arm bushings, and more.

larger 		E30 Solid Differential and Subframe Mount Kit (3 piece kit)
 318, 325, M3 (E30) 		1984-1991 TMS E30 solid subframe and differential mount bushing kit is modeled after the stock BMW bushings, but we have incorporated ideas from our current race style solid bushings from other models. A BMW’s subframe is the heart of the rear suspension. Note we consider the differential part of the subframe, as it is a stress member system. When the subframe moves, so do all of the rear suspension mounting points. Replacing the stock rubber bushings will limit drivetrain and suspension movement and keep your car’s suspension geometry the way it’s supposed to be. "We have the lightest solid bushings on the market." We've also made provisions in the bushings for removal, so should you need to replace your subframe, you will not have to buy new bushings. Kit includes one Racing Delrin Differential Mount. This kit is a legal upgrade in many racing classes.

Note we also sell the Solid Differential mount and Subframe Mounts separately, for those that may already have one of the products or if you desire spares for fast installation. A common example is if you have two differentials with covers, and want to make fast gearing changes at the track.

larger 		Suspension Mount Kit for E30 3 Series
 318, 325, M3 (E30) 		1984-1991

The E30 3 Series Suspension Mount Kit includes two OEM front strut tower mounts with bearings, ten M8 13mm head Nyloc nuts, a pair of rear shock tower mount gaskets and your choice of three different rear shock mounts.  You can choose from the HD OEM Rear Mounts, the "Repair Shop" Lifetime Warranty Mounts, or the High Performance Aluminum & Rubber Mounts.  Any of these mounts are suitable for street use, we recommend the Performance Aluminum & Rubber Mounts for coil-over suspensions or for cars that see a lot of track use.  When you replace spring or shocks & struts in your car, these mounts must be removed and reinstalled anyway. Do it at the same time you replace shocks to save yourself the the increased labor time if they go bad soon after shock/strut install.

larger 		E30 Standard Front Control Arm Bushings (pair)
 318i/325i (not iX) (E30) 		1984-1998 Anytime that you replace your front control arms (which should be often), you must replace your control arm bushings. The reason is because it’s hard to tell if you’re bushings are really bad and they are often destroyed when removed. These bushings have the hole in the center and came standard on the 318i/325i.

For convenience, we carry spare bushing carrier brackets (part# TSU9995PB3, see illustation above) and can pre-install your bushings into the carriers, if you choose. This will save you from needing a hydraulic press and will allow you (or your mechanic) to perform the install much quicker. This is especially useful if you want to have a set of race or track spares, ready to go. If you'd like to purchase the carriers, be sure to select that option with the drop-down menu below (sorry, no returns accepted on pre-assembly labor fee, please).

larger 		E30 Stock Rear Subframe Mounts (pair)
 318i/325i/M3 (E30) 		1984-1991 E30 rear subframe mounts are notorious for going bad. When they do, the subframe will move around and making a very annoying clunking sound. A loose subframe also plays havoc with your suspension's alignment and settings. Stiffer Group N mounts are also available. $54.00

larger 		E30 Group N Rear Subframe Mounts (pair)
 318i/325i/M3 (E30) 		1984-1991 E30 rear subframe mounts are notorious for going bad. When they do, the subframe will move around and making a very annoying clunking sound and causing the rear end of the car to become unstable. A loose subframe also plays havoc with your suspension's alignment and settings. These Genuine BMW Motorsport Group N mounts are made of stiffer rubber have less flex in them for better suspension alignment and tighter feel. May increase roadnoise slightly if used on a street car. (J Stock Legal, as "bushing material is free") $378.00
E30 325iX Front Control Arm Bushing
 325iX (E30) 		1987-1991 Replacement front control arm bushings for the E30 325iX 1987-1991. These are a direct replacement to the original bushings. Priced each - car takes 2 $21.50

larger 		E30 325iX Front Upper Strut Mount Bearings (Pair)
 325iX (E30) 		1987-1991 Replacement front upper strut mount bearing for the 1987-91 E30 325iX AWD. This mount is specific to the 325iX 4WD and will not fit any other E30 model. This is the mount for the front strut insert at the top. Sold as a pair. $259.90

larger 		E30, E28 Standard Front Upper Strut Mounts (pair)
 318i/325i/M3 (E30 E28 E24) 		1982-1991 Front upper strut bearings last quite a long time. But if you're doing new front struts and the current mounts have more than 150,000 miles it would be a good idea to get new upper mounts as well. These mounts are the standard orientation, not offset.

Applications:
5/82-1989 E24 6-series, including 628CSi, 633CSi, 635CSi, M6
1982-1988 E28 5-series, including 528e, 533i, 535i, M5
1984-1992 E30 3-series, including 318i, 325e, 325es, 325, 325i, 325is, M3

larger 		E30 / E24 / E28 Offset Front Upper Strut Mounts (pair)
 318i/325i/M3/528/535/635 (E30 E28 E24) 		1982-1992 This genuine BMW upper strut mount is "offset" and adds more negative camber (or removes camber if installed in reverse) to the front of your E30/E24 or E28. These are a must for any track/autocross-driven BMW because they decrease understeer! Note that more negative camber will increase inner tire wear so offset mounts are generally recommended only for track cars. BMW CCA J Stock Class Legal.

Applications:
5/82-1989 E24 6-series, including 628CSi, 633CSi, 635CSi, M6

larger 		E30, E36 Offset Front Control Arm Bushings (pair)
 318i/323i/325i/328i/M3 Sedan (E30 E36) 		1984-1999 Anytime that you replace your front control arms (which should be often), you must replace your control arm bushings. The reason is because it’s hard to tell if you’re bushings are really bad and they are often destroyed when removed. These bushings have the hole off-center to give your car a little more track, caster, and camber. They are a solid rubber bushing that is great for the street. These came as standard equipment on E30M3s (8/89-later) and 1995 E36 M3s but will work with any E30 or E36.

For convenience, we carry spare bushing carrier brackets (part# TSU9995PB3, see illustation above) and can pre-install your bushings into the carriers, if you choose. This will save you from needing a hydraulic press and will allow you (or your mechanic) to perform the install much quicker.

larger 		3 Series Repair Shop Rear Shock Tower Mounts (Pair)
 318, 323, 325, 328, 330, M3 (E30 E36 E46) 		1983-2005 The rear mounts in BMW 3 series fail, no matter what year from 1983 to present, that is a weak point of the suspension. Here's the solution. The 3 Series "Repair Shop" Rear Shock Mounts carry a lifetime warranty and will last as long as you own your car. Expect the same comfortable ride you have with factory mounts. These are an inexpensive alternative to expensive factory mounts.

Make this complete by adding the mount gasket and nuts (add the option below).

larger 		E30, E36, E46 HD Rear Shock Tower Mounts (Pair)
 318i/323i/325i/328i/M3 Sedan (E30 E36 E46) 		1984-2002 This is a BMW OEM shock mount, originally used on the E30 convertible models. Why E30? Because we have tried them all and the E30 cabrio mounts seem to hold up the best. However, all OEM rubber shock mounts will fail - it's just a matter of time. They'll even fail with a stock suspension but even quicker with modified suspensions. These E30 mounts are a little better than the originals. For even greater strength upgrade to the 'Repair Shop' or the aluminum mounts. Priced per pair. $59.90

larger 		60mm Upper Spring Perch Set

 M3 325i 325Ci 328i 328Ci 330i 330Ci (E30 E36 E46) 		1984-2006 These rear shock mounts are specifically for use with rear shocks with a 12mm shaft, such as some Koni shocks. They feature anodized aluminum and a heavy duty rubber bushing. Note that the Bilstein Ride-Control B16 kit uses a 12mm shaft (that kit is different than the Bilstein PSS9/PSS10 kits, which use the BMW-standard 10mm shaft). $99.95
Replacement Bushings for JTD909 Aluminum Rear Shock Tower Mounts
 318, 323, 325, 330, M3 (E30 E36 E46 Z3) 		1984-2005 Replacement Bushings for JTD909 Aluminum Rear Shock Tower Mounts. This includes enough bushings to replace bushings on both the left and right mounts. $15.00

larger 		E30, E36, E46 Aluminum Rear Shock Tower Mounts (pair)
 318i/323i/325i/328i/330/M3, Z3 all (E30 E36 E46 Z3) 		1984-2005 These are the best rear shock mounts that we have found for the E30, E36, and E46! Featuring CNC-machined billet aluminum mounting base with a replaceable urethane bushing (replacement bushings are just $15 and are changed in minutes!). These mounts are excellent for either street or track because of their low NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness). Plus, the superior design will far outlast the life of stock mounts - maybe even the car itself. You'll never think twice about your shock mounts again! These shock mounts are a direct replacement of the stock mounts so they fit all shocks with the BMW-standard 10mm shock shaft, including all H&R coil overs, Bilstein shocks and PSS, PSS9, PSS10 coil overs (except the B16 Ride Control Kit) and all factory and OEM shocks (Boge, Sachs, etc). This is sold as a package with new shock mount gaskets, washers, and Nyloc nuts. $99.95

larger 		E30/E36/E46 Solid Bearing Style Rear Upper Shock Mount (RSM)
 318i/323i/325i/328i/M3/Z3/Z4 (E30 E36 E46 Z3 Z4) 		1984-2005 Made in the USAWant the Ultimate design in a rear shock tower mount? You've found it. These rear shock mounts are designed for use on the track and racing. This set of mounts will help your rear shocks perform the best they can in those conditions. The advantage to using a mount with spherical bearing is that it allows the shock to freely move off axis without side loading the shock shaft like rubber or polyurethane mounts do. Side loading a shock increases stiction and wear which decreases its efficiency. Because these are mounts without an isolator (rubber or polyurethane) to dampen road noise and vibrations we do not recommend them for street cars. These were designed in-house and developed for our own track and race cars.

These TMS bearing mounts include both 10mm and 12mm stainless steel bearing sleeves to work with a wide variety of shock shaft pins. The pin is the upper-most portion of the shock where it passes through the mount. If you need a bearing sleeve size other then 10mm or 12mm please contact us.

These rear shock tower mounts fit the following BMWs:
1984-1991 E30 3 series (all) incl. 318i, 318is, 325, 325e, 325es, 325i, 325is

larger 		E30, E36, Z3 Centered Control Arm Bushings (pair)
 318/323/325/328, M3, MZ3, Z3 1.9/2.3/2.5/2.8/3.0 (E30 E36 Z3) 		1984-2002 Anytime that you replace your front control arms you must replace your control arm bushings. The reason is because it’s hard to tell if you’re bushings are really bad and they are often destroyed when removed. These bushings have the hole in the center.

These bushings are a great upgrade for any E30 - 318/325, E36 - 325/323/328, Z3 -1.9, 2.3, 2.5, 2.8, 3.0 They have more rubber then the stock bushings. We have found the increased volume of rubber helps the bushings last longer. These bushings can actually help reduce vibrations produced by the mass of larger wheels or brakes.

For convenience, we carry spare bushing carrier brackets (part# TSU9995PB3, see illustation above) and can pre-install your bushings into the carriers, if you choose. This will save you from needing a hydraulic press and will allow you (or your mechanic) to perform the install much quicker. This is especially useful if you want to have a set of race or track spares, ready to go. If you'd like to purchase the carriers, be sure to select that option with the drop-down menu below (sorry, no returns accepted on pre-assembly labor fee, please).

larger 		E30, E36, Z3 Delrin Offset Control Arm Bushings (pair)
 318i/323i/325i/328i/Z3/M3 (E30 E36 Z3) 		1984-2002 Made in the USAThese bushings have the hole off-center to give your car a little more track, caster, and camber. This style came as standard equipment on E30M3s (8/89-later) and 1995 E36 M3 but will work with any E30, E36, Z3.

Rubber control arm bushings are designed to flex and absorb energy. That’s fine on a streetcar but on an all-out racing machine you want your alignment to stay constant. We have picked Delrin for this application doe to its high rigidity and low coefficient of friction allowing for minimal suspension bushing deflection (geometry change) but decreasing bushing windup or drag (friction). They are not recommended for street-use but highly-recommended for track cars. They will work on all E30, E36, and Z3 models.

For convenience, we carry spare bushing carrier brackets (part# TSU9995PB3, see illustation above) and can pre-install your bushings into the carriers, if you choose.

It includes two bushing carriers (one left, one right) and mounting bolts. Having a spare set means you can get your new bushings pre-installed and ready to go on the car (perhaps as a race/track spare?) without having to remove your current brackets and take them to the shop to press out of the old bushing and press the new ones in. $98.95
