Who runs OEM m3 front sway bars?
Just wondering if you guys are running lowered suspension setups too and what you guys do with the endlinks. If they rnt shortened.. if the car is lowered, then there should be preload too.....

Is the M3 endlink a different p/n than the 335 one? If not, maybe the bar has a different shape to compensate for the lower ride height? I agree that shorter/adjustable endlinks are a good idea for cars that are lowered. Maybe some of the aftermarket adjustable links made for previous generations of 3 series will work?

Harold at HP Autowerks sells adjustable endlinks. As does turner motorsports. I'm going to get mine from turner since they are close and shipping won't kill me.

What you want to do is bring the anti roll bar endlink mounts as close to the original geometry as possible before the vehcle was lowered, therefore longer links. |

Bringing this thread back!!
I'm replacing my front UUC sway bar up front with the M3 front sway bar, just for a change (if anyone wants a UUC sway bar, PM me
 ) but was wondering what I should do with the endlinks...I just switched my supsension from KWv2's to stock ZSP... but I know the 335i stock ride height is higher than the M3 ride height... does that mean I need shorter end links??? The M3 sway apparently comes with some end links, but I am thinking they are the stock M3 end links... in which case I might need longer end links than the ones it comes with?? Is anyone else running front M3 sway bar with stock ZSP suspension? Thanks!!
