Shock Mount Kits

Replacing your struts and shocks? Don't forget the bushings! The rubber mounts for the shocks will go bad over time, especially if you drive hard or the roads are particularly rough. The shock mounts locate the front struts and rear shocks to the car - providing a quiet and vibration-free buffer between the road and the cabin. Shock mounts and bushings can wear out just like any other rubber part on the car. This leads to more noise and harshness reaching the chassis and may complicate your new suspension install. When installing new shocks, that is the perfect time to also replace the mounts. There is no additional time to install them, no special tools required, and doesn't take any extra time! If you re-use the original mounts you have the risk of them failing before your next shock replacement, doubling your labor costs. 

This item fits the following BMWs:

Want a race-spec rear shock mount but with the comfort of a factory bushing? This ECS rear shock mount combines the precision and articulation of a spherical bearing with the isolation of urethane bushings. The stainless monoball bearing is lined with PTFE lubricant and suspended in 80A urethane and housed in a hard anodized 6061-T6 aluminum mount. The spherical bearing is a better design than most rear shock mounts because it allows the shock to move and tilt without side-loading the shock shaft (which leads to premature failure of the shock). Most Genuine BMW and aftermarket shock mounts are not designed for shock angles and the stress that track or performance driving will put on the shock shaft. The ECS shock mount is properly designed to handle these loads. The internal bearing is also replaceable - it will be years before you have to replace the entire mount. The ECS mount is fully encapsulated to prevent the common shock mount failure of the stock mount design.

ECS RSM features:

• Maintenance free, PTFE lined, stainless steel monoball spherical bearing for full shaft articulation
• 80A polyurethane isolation bushings for NVH control
• Accommodates 10mm, 12mm, or 14mm damper shafts
• Fully constrained shaft mount makes RSM blow out impossible
• Hard anodized 6061-T6 construction
• Fully rebuildable design

* - the RSM comes with the BMW standard 10mm shock shaft bushings. 12mm is used on some performance shocks and 14mm is used on some true motorsport rear shocks.

If you're replacing the struts and shocks on your 325Xi or 330Xi you should also pick up this mount package. As these cars have gotten older, their rubber mounts have deteroriated. If your shocks have gone bad then chances are very good that the mounts need replacing too. The rubber bushings are designed to isolate the chassis from bumps, potholes, and poor roads and give a harsh-free ride and precise handling. But they won't last forever. These mounts and pads are the perfect complement to your new shocks to help restore your car's handling and performance.

This mount package contains all of the commonly replaced rubber mounts and pads for the front and rear shocks on a 1999-2006 E46 325Xi and 330Xi AWD. These are easily installed - there's no additional labor, time, or effort and special tools are not required.

The basic E46 Xi mount package includes:

• Front strut mounts (also known as the guide support)
• Front strut reinforcement plates (to prevent cracking and deforming of the front strut towers)
• Front and rear self-locking mounting nuts
• Rear Lifetime Warranty 'Repair Shop' shock mounts
• Rear shock mount reinforcements (to prevent cracking of shock towers)
• Rear shock mount gaskets

The spring pads, dust boots, and bump stops can be added from the menu below. Note that front bump stops and dust boots are generally not required if you're using Bilstein struts, Bilstein coil overs, H&R coil overs, or KW coil overs. Those struts come with their own front bump stops and boots and may include rear stops and boots as well.

This item fits the following BMWs:
1999-2006 E46 BMW 325xi 330xi

Located on the underside of the vehicle, this mount is a critical suspension component that pairs with the upper mount inside the trunk area to securely anchor the suspension system. Together, they help absorb vibrations, reduce noise, and maintain a smooth, controlled ride.

Over time, exposure to road debris, moisture, and everyday wear can weaken this mount, potentially causing increased noise, diminished ride quality, and compromised handling. Replacing a worn or damaged mount is essential to restore suspension performance and maintain vehicle stability.
