Hey guys,
I am wondering if anyone knows where to get a replacement for this product on my E46 other than from KW USA. I know that the KW V2 front end link is much shorter than the OEM end link. I bought an OEM one thinking it should fit but realized after taking the front wheel off that it is a totally different length. Any advice would be great!!! :thumbup

An e36 ///M3 endlink is most likely the length your looking for.

I have some adjustables I could send you.... For test fit.

KW gave me a price at $36 each.....that's not too bad considering I paid $50 for the OEM front end links? What would you charge me Dane? I don't mean to make this feel like an auction...LOL. Do adjustables have a short/long limit? So the ones you have would have to be within that range of my size.

I was going to give them to you to try for size, prior to purchase. If they fit... You can have..... Them.... Oh.... Snap..... I just remembered that I cleaned out my garage and threw them away.

My bust. You can get the ones from KW. What was the problem here? They wore out quickly?

Yeah they wore out within 2 years!! I don't know why... They are not covered under lifetime warranty. Just the shocks are.

Interesting. I have the KW endlinks installed. Will keep my eyes out, but will most likely replace with the ///M3 oem links when these wear out.

so you know how short they are compared to OEM length? Where can I find M3 ones? Link if possible. Hopefully they're just as short!!

I bought the e36 ///M3 endlink from www.velocitymotorcars.com

You can get the OEM endlink anywhere.

Gee that site is confusing...lol. Do you know first hand an E36 M3 sedan/coupe/convertible would be the same length of our KW front end link?
