VAC Motorsports Complete Shock Tower Mount / Repair Kit
Buy Now: ~~$84.95~~ $74.95

A Complete, bolt in solution to rear shock mount failure/rear shock tower deformation.

Once your rear shock mounts fail, its an ugly noisy affair that makes your BMW dangerous to drive. Our kit can prevent and repair a blown out/failed shock mount, both cost effectively and permanently.

The bread and butter of this kit lies in our improved rubber mounts and our bolt-on stainless steel reinforcements:Our reinforcements are a simple bolt-on and have a wider area than BMW or other aftermarket reinforcements which spreads the shock-load over a greater area of the chassis. This greatly reduces the instances of metal fatigue and the chances of total failure of the body mount.

Our high quality rubber shocks mounts isolate bumps and noise from transferring from the rear shocks to the cabin, and are more durable than OEM units from BMW. These are perfectly suitable for any street customer, and are not any less comfortable than OEM.

This kit is your best bet when replacing rear shocks, or if your shocks mounts are about to --or have already-- failed.
Ensures safety on the street and even durable enough for light track use.

100% Bolt In Installation
Fixes blown out shock mounts and stops sheet metal deformation
Fits all 2 door and 4 door E30, E36, E46 & Z1, Z3, and Z4 models (Select specific fit above)

Tech Notes:
-This kit replaces the shock mounts, and add strength to the shock towers. If severe body damage has occurred to the shock tower sheet metal, we recommend repair by a body shop before installing this kit.
-For E36 Ti / Compact, please select E30 application
