well over the weekend i replaced my rear shock mounts. Thanx to mark "U1arunit" who installed them. The ones i went with are Rouge Engineering and i have to say they are great. They are very well constructed and make the ride alot nicer considering i was riding around on broken shock mounts hehehe. But if anybody out there is looking to replace rear shock mounts i recogmend the RE ones. They were also went into the car verry easy only took about 40 minutes if that.. OH and here is the pic of the stock pieces of junk...

I also replaced my RSMs this weekend as well. Mine didn't look as bad as bimmerdriver99 but the center sleeve was starting to tear away from the rest of the rubber. I installed used GC RSMs and I can say I can feel the difference. The ride seems more solid and less rattle. I however took longer than 40 mins because of stupid mistakes. So glad I replaced them.

Ha....what a coincidence. I just replaced mine earlier today, install is cake. And I agree, the RE ones are very nice quality and the ride is so much better although my stock RSMs didn't have that much wear on them. I should've done this a long time ago, this should be a must do for all E36, z3, Mz3, E30, etc owners.

Next up is the RTABs :)

Ya i deffinatly agree with a must replace for the e36 especally if you have aftermarket suspension. I could not even imagin what would have happend if they ripped all the way around it could have been ugly. and it probolly would have happend when i was going fast on the highway or something...
