just did some maintenance today



i put that hose there to delete the self levelling future of the rear shocks when i installed my coils. The shocks are filled with the power steering fluid and you cant just plug the line. The hose started leaking.
so i decided to fix it the proper way






bought a pipe bender and a bubble flare tool. Bent a piece of the original pipe and just reused the original fittings. now its leak free and i can drive it again!

havent done anything too exciting to the car recently. I bought supplies to fix my gauge cluster LCD screen soon, i plan on fabricating a BBK for it over winter as well. Other than that ive just been driving it and enjoying the car before the snow falls

Hey nice job on the e38. You should, if you haven't done so already, introduce yourself over at the e38 subforum on bf.c also is your alpina lip fiberglass or mixed with polyurethane?

Well you should there's a wealth of e38 knowledge over there. I've been looking for a blended one for months. Where'd or who'd you get yours from and how was its fitment?

i yea for sure, I've posted there a few times and got answers to questions, a lot of good helpful dudes there. What do you mean by blended one? The car i got off some guy and i built it. Fitment wise, i was tucking 12s before but i didn't like how it looked from the back and it rode like shit, so then i decided to make it flush all around. is that what you were asking?

[bimmerspotter]

I don't know if you've answered this question but what are your spring rates?
