Fall Line vs Bimmerworld Suspension Upgrades
looking at upgrading the suspension units (toe links, mono ball, ect) from and rear. Already have KW Cludsports and front and rear adj sway bars. So bimmerworld and Fall line now have performance replacement parts. But is there any reason why to choose one over the other? they are also similarly priced.

In the midwest, Fall-Line has a strong reputation and presence in the racing community. With that said, I've bought a ton of parts from Bimmerworld and they are a great supplier. They'll give you straight up information and don't bs you.

Agreed. They have a big facility at Autobahn CC and I see them involved every time I'm there.

Another 100% satisfied bimmerworld customer here. I found the BW parts web descriptions to be very honest. If a part increases NVH, they disclose it and describe it so the customer can make an informed decision.
No experience with fall line. |

Our social media manager pointed me to this and I thought it easiest to respond personally. I assume the parts are similar in that there are only so many ways to skin this cat.
We use a top-quality Aurora bearing or an OE-supplier bearing on those types of kits (FCAB, RLCA). We have raced the E92 M3 in CTSC (where these parts largely aren't legal), as well as various programs where they are. Several of our parts are an iteration based on our E90 WC Touring Cars that came out in 2006 - especially the front race arm geometry correction kits and steering rack relocation if you go that far, and I think we are somewhat unique with that level of part. We design in-house, use on customer cars and our own, and our sales guys are a walk away from the design resources if there are questions or issues. I did look up Casey's order. That batch was an early one with a slightly longer arm which we used to increase track and modify geometry, but after some complaints from customers that didn't want to go as far as we did, we shortened the link to include a larger range without the other alignment changes. |

thanks for the response. I actually picked up Casey's rear kit the other day. So am going with Bimmerworld! Gonna pick up the front kit as soon as budget allows If I end up needed the short arms is it possible to buy just those parts that you al modified in later kits? I actually got yalls protoype race exhaust and am loving it! Keep up the good work James! Adam (warp10)
