Pickup currently not available
The E36 rear strut towers are known to fail, it is one of the car’s weakest point. When the strut towers start to “mushroom,” it means that the metal has begun to deform. It is a result of stress, corrosion, or improper load distribution. This rear BMW top plate reinforcement kit is the easiest way to fix or prevent this issue.
The strut towers are integral to the suspension geometry. Deformed strut towers will keep you from properly align your car. This also means that your tire wear won’t be even. You may experience a harsher ride as the suspension struggles to perform correctly. We recommend the installation of reinforcement plates for both your safety and driving experience. If you leave the strut towers deformed, you will cause the other suspension components to wear faster, and your suspension won’t work properly.
If your towers are still in good shape, we recommend to every BMW E36 owners to install this kit as a prevention. We have seen a lot of them fail, mostly on cars with aftermarket suspension parts. For example, if you install a coilover kit on your car, chances are the towers will start to bend out of shape.
These rear BMW top plate reinforcement plates bolt on top of the studs from your rear shock mount, inside of your trunk. It's a direct bolt-on upgrade, that prevents failure from hardcore driving or stiff suspension. They can also be welded, to the liking of the customer.
We strongly suggest you install reinforcement plates in the front also.
