98 328i e36 - struts questions

[DTreats]

Hey guys as the title says im really unfamillier with how the suspention system works on my vehicle, its rather new to me and im so used to american cars :eek:

So iv purchased bushings to replace on the rear of the vehicle,
but i was wondering what all goes into the front suspension on the car.

Iv been looking around and found this,

What else goes into it, any diagrams you could show?

Any information would be extremely helpful,

Thanks,

In regards to the kit you have linked above, I would recommend doing a complete upgrade front and rear. If your looking for coilovers on a budget, I suggest the FK Streetlines.

Looking for adjustability in your suspension but don't want to spend much more than a good spring/shock combo?

That is now finally possible with the new FK Street-Line E36 Coilovers. These new E36 coilovers feature a twin tube shock & give you a adjustment range of 40-80mm (1.7-3").

The have a 2 year limited warranty & feature a firm but not harsh ride, much like one you would get out of nicely tuned cup kit or spring/shock combo.

Simply the very best "bang for the buck" coil over for your E36 BMW!
