    WOW.. that e23! My guess would be that sways from a 745 would be more readily available. A post would on mye28.com wouldn't hurt. Few e23 guys on that site.

    I have a few sets I am going to copy to make available to people again. I cannot make them this year, sorry.

    FWIW, I spent nearly 15 years scouring around for the three sets I have on hand.
    I make E23 parts.

    11/1984 745i
    11/1984 735i (10:1-265/6)
    Ford, MB, and GM round out the pack.

    Mine are 29/19 and 29/22s. One set are Dinans, other are from a defunct Performance International Motorsports sold as 'Performance Series' from memory.

    I have a stock 745i rear I may sell, working on coping those brackets.

    Depends how much cash you are offering, but probably not. That is like my Sanden bracket I have left to recreate.

    What is your HVAC not doing? Anything? At this point it probably needs everything, it is 30+ years old. Focus on the vent/heat/air flow portion first. Unless you are handy with A/C, then pull a vac on the thing and shoot three, 10oz cans of air duster into it. That will mimic R12 performance.

    LOL..ok no dice on the Dinan sway bars.

    My HVAC system actually works on occasion when I hit a hard bump and then I can hear the blower motor start slowly winding up to speed and working. The system has been converted over to new AC refrigerant. But it works properly on occasion.
