Suspension Refresh List

[NickZHP]

I am replacing the suspension and components on my car and need help completing my list of what to replace.

This is my list so far:
-Koni Yellow Shocks and Struts
-Strut Mounts x2
-Strut Bump Stop x2
-Strut Tower reinforcement Plates x2
-Shock Mounts x2
-Shock Bump Stop x2
-Shock Paper Gasket x2
-Shock Tower Reinforcement Plates x2

-FCAB x2
-RTAB x2
-Front And Rear Swaybar Bushings
-Front And Rear Swaybar Endlinks

Anything I'm missing or don't need?

Anything I'm missing or don't need?

It depends on how extensive you want the refresh to be. I think some people re-use the bump stops.

Here's some of the stuff I ordered to replace the shocks and struts with Koni. I haven't done the work yet, so I can't confirm if it's a good idea or if these are the right parts.

2x Self-Locking Nut 32216769539 (for shock mount)
2x Self Locking Hex Nut 33526773882 (for strut mount)

2x 31336752735-MFG69 Strut Mount
2x 31331110196-MFG9 Dust Protection Collar
6x 31316769731-MFG926 Collar Nut (I believe these are the 3 per side for the strut mounts)
2x 31331096664-MFG9 Spring Pad (Since the springs will be off in the front)
2x 31331091867-MFG963 Spring Pad
2x 33506757047-MFG604 Foam Bump Stop
2x 31306757046-MFG963 Foam Bump Stop
2x 33521136283-MFG36 Protection Boot
2x 31331094749-MFG36 Protection Boot
2x 51717036781-MFG9 Reinforcement Plate
2x 31311139453-MFG926 Cover Cap (I'm not sure if this is the part I intended to order. I read somewhere that the lemforder mounts don't come with a dust cap and this is what I ordered.)

Below is my suspension refresh thread. Be mindful that I have a coupe rather than a sedan, but most of the parts listed should be the same on a sedan.

I used this guide when I did my refresh today. I think the only difference for me may have been a consolidated part number for a dust cover and bumpstop combo for both the front and rear.

Endlinks? I apologize if I missed them.

S7 Edge, out

Yes, that too. I think the pn is 31356780847.

BMWCurves thank you! That made this a lot easier to do. I think I am going to go with these AKG FCAB 95A instead of the Z4M bushings. It doesn't look like these come with the brackets though, do I reuse my old ones or buy new ones? And where do I get new ones?

I had the akg on the wife's zhp and then went to the z4m. Prefer the z4m

I ended up going with Z4M FCABs. Just to be clear these FCABs include the retainer AND bushing, correct?
