Suspension replacement parts

I'm looking at replacment suspension parts for my '01 740i I will be picking up next weekend. I found there are a ton of different brands. What is the best to go with, I was looking more into the Meyle HD then some of the other brands? I don't know what all needs to be replaced yet but I'm assuming everything with the miles it has. The PO said there is a squeek coming from the left rear when stopping or going over bumps, so I'll look into that as well.

contact Max at oembimmerparts.com . Meyle seem to be the best. I have bought some stuff from him (non-suspension) and he seems like a nice guy.

Just be sure the car is on the ground with full weight before you do final tightening.... otherwise you will be doing it again in a few months.

Glad to know my initial descision was right about the brand lol. I have a nice SnapOn torque wrench for those final tighenings also

Edit: Looks like I can do a front end rebuild for $516 with Meyle HD and rear suspension rebuild for $429 with Meyle parts also. A grand for all new quality suspensions seems like a good idea to me.

Yep... just remember what I said about pre-loading before tightening...

Try BMAparts.com ask for Patrick

Can you buy thrust arm bushings on OEMBimmerparts? Are there different brands for those?

i have only heard good things about Meyle parts. i havent used them yet. i wonder how they stack up to Moog parts? they are much more affordable too!

sent the last 7 of my VIN the other day. Will that list and price still be feasable?

PM replied!

Just ordered my new front suspension level one kit from ECS Tunning. Excellent price, at least $100 less then anywhere else I could find it. Can't wait for it to get here so I can install it and get rid of that annoying wobble. Thanks Joe!

Thank you for the kind words and the opportunity to serve you!

Glad to have been able to help.

Best,
Joe
