I think I see a set of B6s at around 200,000 miles. The current factory struts and shocks still feel really tight, and the rear shocks damping felt amazing by hand.

Another note, on the X5 I marked everything before disassembly and after the complete bushings and ball joints, the alignment came back within .1 degrees of camber from where it was before the work. I guess the old bushings and joints really were in decent shape after all but at least I know they are new now. :dunno:

I just did the BBK, B8s and H&R 21mm/27mm sway bars on my E46 so the money in my slush fund is getting low.

:thumbup::thumbup:

Did you replace front end rear control arms by chance and do you still have 'em if they are in hand me down shape. Bought some new lemforder and the week I was about to install my wife's X5 needed them worse. (much worse).

Since then "something else" keeps getting in the way of my control arm replacement :

Two new rear O2

One at a time front 02

Front right bearing

Front left bearing.

Wife's right rear.

Wife's sway bar links.

Sorry Andrew, I did replace those front control arms complete along with front tension arms as well but threw them away when I did the work last year. They would have been in very good used condition but they are gone. I will keep you in mind in the future with any parts I replace.
