Air Lift is proud to introduce their all new height + pressure air suspension control system! Air Lift Performance 3H is the result of three years of development and testing. It is the most advanced product they have yet to create. Air Lift Performance 3H combines pressure-based control with ride-height sensing technology. While both types of air management have been utilized before, this is the first product to harness the benefits of both systems – instantly improving suspension control, performance, and vehicle ride flexibility. Key Specs: Controller - Features a brilliant TFT color display with adjustable backlight and illuminated preset buttons. Shown in the full color display is your tank pressure, 4-corner active height and pressure readings, as well as a full menu selection. This controller is lined with a black anodized CNC machined case that is also threaded in all four corners for custom mounting. To further allow custom mounting options the keypad can also be rotated and configured horizontally! Lastly this innovative controller is powered via a Micro-USB port and cable. Mobile App - Each 3H and 3P management system works with the Free mobile app with no additional hardware required to buy and install! Not only can you adjust your ride height and system settings from your smart phone via Bluetooth, you can now update the system software directly to the manifold and controller from the mobile app as well! Manifold - The heart of every 3H and 3P system is most advanced state of the art manifold Air Lift Performance has ever created. Constructed using the best components and materials Air Lift could find, this system has also undergone rigorous torture testing to ensure this system will last for countless miles to come! Featuring a 32-bit processor that provides sophisticated height and pressure algorithms to give you the most precise control over all four corners of your vehicle. This system has also been designed to be installed as simply as possible with minimal, streamlined harness connections between the controller, manifold, and power supply. This manifold has been fully integrated from the get go with built in Bluetooth eliminating the need for additional components and wiring to connect your mobile device to the system. Air Lift Performance has also included a built in accelerometer that can detect the movement of the vehicle and make extremely accurate adjustments to ride height at anytime using the height sensors or keeping your bag pressure in line with your pre-set values. Height Sensors - Air Lift Performance has created an improved and advanced height sensor arm utilizing a angular design which will increase the sensors life span compared to straight-arm designs. The wiring harness's for these sensors also have very small connectors meaning that you do not have to drill large holes, or any holes at all in your vehicle to route them to the manifold harness! Also included are fully adjustable sensor linkages that can be measured and cut to exact lengths to properly operate in the suggested range of motion in which a template is supplied in the installation manual. This kit is also sold separately for those with the 3P Digital Air Management System that may want to upgrade to full height and pressure adjustability in the future. Show Mode - Allows you to still manage your vehicles height while the vehicle is off either through the controller or over Bluetooth with your smart phone! Kit Features: Height + Pressure 1/4" Manifold Air Lift Black Anodized Aluminum Display Fully Integrated Wiring Harness That Also Incorporates Compressor Power Necessary Fittings, Hardware, and Connectors For a Complete Install Air Lift Automatically Draining Water Trap 60ft of 1/4" Air Line 3H Includes Rotational Height Sensors, Wiring, and Linkages FREE Smart Phone App Which Works on Both iPhone and Android Integrated Into the Manifold, No Extra Module to Buy!

The Powerflex BMW E36 / E30 / E28 / E24 Rear Sway Bar Link To Arm Bushing (Heritage) is a precision-engineered suspension upgrade designed for BMW enthusiasts who want to maintain the authentic feel of their classic models while improving performance and durability.

Key Features:

  • Heritage Styling: Part of the Heritage Collection, these bushings feature a period-correct gray finish that seamlessly integrates into the vintage aesthetic of BMW models like the E36, E30, E28, and E24. It provides a subtle upgrade without disrupting the car’s classic look.
  • Modern Polyurethane Material: Though the appearance is classic, the bushings are made from high-performance polyurethane, which outperforms the original rubber bushings in terms of strength, longevity, and resistance to wear. This material ensures longer-lasting performance in various driving conditions.
  • Improved Handling: By minimizing the play between the sway bar link and the rear arm, these bushings offer enhanced control over the vehicle’s handling, particularly during cornering. The improved suspension alignment reduces body roll and increases stability, giving drivers better feedback and more confidence behind the wheel.
  • Comfort Retained: While providing a more controlled and responsive feel, the Heritage bushing is designed to maintain a level of comfort similar to the original rubber bushings, making it ideal for classic BMW owners who want improved performance without sacrificing ride quality.

These bushings are the perfect fit for owners of vintage BMW models looking to subtly upgrade their car’s suspension performance while keeping the classic driving characteristics intact. The Heritage Series strikes a great balance between improved handling, durability, and maintaining the originality of these beloved models.

Why a strut nut socket? To secure shocks and struts to their mounts, the retaining nut must be torqued to its proper specification using a torque wrench. Strut nut sockets allow for the use of a 21mm wrench to hold the damper shaft allowing you to achieve proper torque. An improper torque value may result in premature mount failure - or worse.

Location: Front
Type: Track, Stage 3
Bearing: PTFE-lined pillow-ball, no bushing

KMAC Stage 3 camber/caster plates are designed for track or race-only situations where comfort and noise are not the primary concerns. The Stage 3 camber plates use a pillowball bearing, solidly mounted within the camber plate for direct alignment of the strut shaft and no excess play or deflection. Stage 3 are designed to increase negative camber with their patented 'floating' adjustment that changes camber and caster together. This design allows maximum range of adjustment since no other hardware interferes with the adjustments. Fitment is limited to race-only small diameter coil-over springs (not stock-type). Bearing inserts and adapters included. Detailed instructions included.

Note: suspensions vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Turner Motorsport cannot be responsible for fitment issues caused by non-stock or specialized coil-over suspensions. As with any race-derived component, additonal fabrication may be required.

This item fits the following BMWs:
1984-1991  E30 BMW  318i 318is 318ic 325e 325es 325i 325ic 325is M3

The sway bar in your vehicle connects both of the lower control arms together. During cornering, the wheel on the inside tends to want to roll under. The sway bar acts as a spring and keeps this from happening. This bushing is identical to what came with your car originally. It is the perfect replacement for any weather worn or soft original and, after replacement, will give you a much better feel for the road. An inexpensive replacement piece that will make a big difference in the day to day handling of your vehicle. One of the most important connections in this system is the sway bar bushings. If they are soft or worn, some of that energy going to the other side is lost from too much sway bar flex or bushing give. To keep everything tight and responsive, it's best to replace your bushings.

The DS series from BC racing offers increased control and feedback for those looking to achieve the best driving experience possible. Digressive Valving means the shock is firmer at low speed, while transitioning to a softer and more linear feel as (shaft) speed increases. This leads to a much more planted and controlled feeling in the chassis, increased feedback through the wheel, and a slight drop in passenger comfort. Swift Springs are available upon request with your choice of rates and matched or custom valving.
