Hi,

Where in the Bay Area are you located?

What are the advantages of this conversion?

Thanks,

Interior / Installing premium speakers in a 318is

Erik the Red, did you ever find the solution for the tweeters in the top of the doors?  I'm trying to install a pair, but it seems the wires, already in the door, aren't hooked up.

Thanks,

Suspension / steering slop

Thanks dvmotorsports.  I'd be interested to know how your buddy determined that the joints needed replacing.  My inspection of the rubber disc was from the open hood, looking down with a flash light.  All I could see was that it did not appear to be torn or degraded.  Are those rivets or bolts holding the joint together?  If bolts, I suppose they could just be tightened.

Suspension / steering slop

Hi all,

I'm a new member, and this is my first post.  I went to tighten the nut referenced above, and found it to be hard to turn, but was able to turn about 2 revs.  I stopped, wondering how tight is tight.  I also notice that there is a lot of slop in the U joints.  Has anyone replaced these?  How much slop is too much?  Rubber disc seems to be ok, though.

Thanks,

Dave
