The rear shock mount is the weakest
bushing on the 84 and up 3 Series cars. BMW has gone through more
than 5 generations of designs, and the newest mount is still prone
to failure. This replacement mount based on the popular JTD
performance rear shock mount (but made for higher production) was
released initially for sale to repair shops to eliminate the common
service come-back expense associated with factory mounts. This
mount is now available to you directly from Bimmerworld.
The common problem with the factory
design is the shock does not take only a vertical load - the
trailing arm has an arced range of motion. This forces the shock to
pivot around the upper shock mount, which eventually causes the
adhesive bond in the stock rubber mount to fail - a process
expedited when combined with performance shocks.
This new design allows this pivoting
motion and dramatically extends the life of the mount. We are so
confident in these mounts that if they ever fail, you can trade
them in for a new set at no charge! Made with high quality Buna
rubber to eliminate squeaks and a high production stamped steel
plate, costs for this extraordinary mount are close to the BMW
factory price. Fits all 1984-present 3 Series cars.
