Wilz e36 OEM+ sport build....with s54 on route

[Wilz_vagroots]

Front axle in full swing . Refurbished all the quick rack and lines, mounted it to subframe. Bought the solid bush mount for steering u.j joint and a new shaft. The solid bush will elimate Andy movement in he rubbish runner bush, and give a lot more feel
