Hey all, I did a lil work on my 92 325i and have a few questions.

I installed e30 HD LCAs, LCABs, Inner and outer Tie rods, and a front right hub. Before i did the install i had a bad vibration around corners and a clunking sound when I hit even the smallest bump.

After the install(PAIN IN THE ASS, had to make a tool to do the inner tie rods) the vibration is gone but the clunking sound is still there. What could it be? The sway bushings looked good and so did the endlinks. Could it be the struts & springs?

did you check your subframe? look at anything that goes from the suspension up to the body of the car around the differential. and check your rear shock mounts, to look at these you will need to pull back the carpet inside your trunk.

I have the same problem with my car. I did replaced the arms, tie rods but It did not solved the problem until I replaced my end links.
How did you inspect the end links, did you removed them??
Good luck!

not that, that was a few years ago. I had it reinforced at a frame shop in Andover.


I did pull and check the sway bushings and links and they are good.

It makes this clunking sound every bump i hit. Its almost embarrassing.
