Top Mounts with shock replacement?
I'm about to have my eibach pro and Bilstein B4S' fitted.
Is it advisable to fit new top mounts and bump stops (helper springs) at the same time or does everyone reuse the current ones? My car is on 103k if this makes a difference!

I would always change the top mounts at the same time, false economy no too.

Hi Phil,
I just changed the suspension on mine, i have changed all the suspension mounts front and rear. For the top mounts, i think they are 31306775098 , I bought mine off ebay, made by febi bilstein (approx £60 for both), Genuine bmw one is about £75 per side. I have a list of parts number somewhere, with all the bits that I order for suspension change. Cheers sam |
