BMW E30 suspension overhaul

I am restoring my BMW E30 1987, i would be asking you alot of questions so please be patient with me and dont give up answering me. As a old car, when driving on humps, bumps and general bad roads, my car shakes too much and rattles. I guess its the suspension system so i have decided to change the shock absorbers and the springs, i wanted to know that is there anything else i can change to get the MODERN CAR feel. I have heard of anti-rolls bars, stablizer links etc but not sure what they do.”

Forget adding anything to that BMW, it’s complicated enough as it was made (yet it will ride fine if everything that’s wrong is fixed.) First thing, change out the struts, they aren’t cheap, but that’s the first thing to do. And check the strut mounts when you do this as the rubber often will crack and break with age. That should help the ride a ton. And of course, when it’s up in the air, check the tie rods and ball joints and any suspension bushings for wear. Replace any that have play in them, they should have no play at all. Those BMWs have really well designed suspension systems and even one as old as yours needs nothing added to make it ride correctly. You just need to replace the worn out parts.
