I am new to the site. I have searched for a couple hours, but I have not found an answer, so I will ask some questions. I have a 1995 318ti with stock suspension, I think?
Is it possible/worth it to use a strut tower reinforcement plate combined with a strut tower brace? I ask if it is possible because the threads on the strut mount are not long enough to run both. Does anyone make a longer threaded strut mount? Has anyone simply replaced the bolts with longer ones?
The replacement strut mount that I ordered is about 3/8" taller than the one I took off my car. Yes, it is the correct mount according to Pelican Parts. Why is one taller? The new one has a longer bottom rubber piece than the old one. I would call Pelican, but they are not open on the weekends. I would like to finish this project this weekend.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Ben
