People, BEFORE you vote, please get under your car and check it out... the boots might have split whilst you were asleep last night LOL Nick
I am happy with them, or;
I had what were called '750 Bushings': The suspension flops/shimmies and/or the bush has now failed
I had what were called '750 Bushings' and they work just great
Mine have an OE style bushing (NOT a Green coloured thrust-arm bush) + they flop, shimmy or failed
Mine have an OE style bushing (NOT a Green coloured thrust-arm bushing) and they work just great
The boots have begune cracking- accidentally on install or at some other point
So far so good (parts installed for 0-9 months)
So far so good (parts installed for 10-24 months)
So far so good (parts installed for 24 months or more)
My ball-joints then failed
My swaybar links then failed
Some other part inside them then failed
OK cheap-skate e34ers; recently you just forked out $300 readies for some eBay suspension kit (or otherwise bought these parts) to freshen up your baby e34.
You prbably got (what they said were) 750 bushings and could tell it was all German made with TUV approvals and you may beven have saved 40% off buying Lemfoerder parts (the OE stuff in most cases).
But you've read the threads harping on about 'broken boots' and 'worn out moving joints' and 'sloppy bushes' and you are rapidly losing faith in what you thougth was a great decision... well here's your chance to clear things up.
Vote and see some statistics on what other e34 owners have said about this issue! May we all learn from this poll and keep our babies trouble-free with less pain forever more...
Thanks in advance, Nick

I voted, even though I just put my stuff in yesterday. We'll see how the Flennor stuff is, though I ended up with Lemforder for the thrust arms.

Well, my FCP "M5" upgrade set is still holding up after track day yesterday... but we'll see. I haven't driven her today yet, heh.
Flennor seems to have a good history and their parts appear to be good quality. Flennor are german made. BMA sent me flennor dogbones even though i ordered meyle.

I did not vote - all of mine are Lemforder, and they are doing great. Replaced the thrusts and controls more than 2 years and 30k miles ago. I am not rich enough to "save money" by installing cheap parts. But, I wish I could see the poll results without voting, since my vote would skew the results, and there is no "not applicable" option.
You can. Click on "View Poll Results" link immediately below the lower right hand corner of the poll questions box.Originally Posted by mikell
