Is there any interest in a few of these sets? I need a set for my 318ti project, but thought we might be able to put a few people together and have some tabs made which would save quite a bit of $$ over paying $150 something for them. Let me know if there is any interest. I can draw something up quick and get a quote, but if no one wants them I might as well just buy them off the shelf (have to make quantity to cut the cost down) TAftonomos@gmail.com |  |  | | 09-24-2009, 05:34 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2008 Location: Phoenix AZ Posts: 121 |
Ohhh man lame! I'm very interested in a set of these but I'm going to be doing my bushing/diff/abs/spring replacement this weekend.
I'm hoping the tire wear will be acceptable with the H&R 29970 and stock camber and toe. __________________

I have some CNC connections, send me a copy of the drawing and I'll send it to my friends for another quote. __________________

I made drawings and put a parts list together for the eccentric bolts. I'll send you an e-mail Cali... and here is the post I made about it before: http://www.318ti.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22672

Yup, those are the same bits I was planning on making. I'm STILL waiting on a quote on them however... | | | | | 10-06-2009, 04:20 AM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 |

Phil, I just sent you a iges file. | | | | | 10-06-2009, 07:43 PM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 2,525 |
Interested if you source them with high quality bolts.. Not looking for cheap grade 5 type stuff.
I'm pretty sure if you can get the plates made, we can get the bolts at McMasterCarr for a good price. I love that place for hardware.. | | | | | 10-07-2009, 02:32 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: Atlanta Posts: 159 |
I was going to use the OEM eccentric bolts, but if you can get something else cheaper then all power to ya! I should have a quote back today on these things  | | | | | 10-07-2009, 02:43 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 |

I'm confused, I was the one posting about having these made. Are you making them now too? | | | | | 10-07-2009, 03:45 PM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Oxford, Ohio Posts: 868 |
These just need to be made from mild steel. Also, the bolts are eccentric so no McMaster today.
I bought mine from the dealer and they cost about 40 bucks for all of them.
Part numbers needed are:
33321095102 - Eccentric Bolt M12 x 98
33321092310 - Eccentric Washer
33326751446 - Flange Locking Nut
plus the plates of course. | | | | | 10-07-2009, 06:29 PM | #15 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Saint Paul, MN Posts: 3,244 |
