BMW E90, E82, & E84 Rear Trailing Arm Replacement/Revshift Upgrade DIY (M3, 328i, 135i, X1, & More)

►The factory trailing arms on the BMW E90, E82, and E84 are known to be a weak point of the rear suspension. They’re designed by BMW to be a failure point in the event of a hard impact with a curb or large pothole. Because of this, under high-load, they are known to deflect and can be a danger when in a high-performance driving environment.

Revshift makes an economical CNC-machined 6061 billet aluminum rear trailing arm kit to replace the flimsy BMW versions. These will never bend and will never need replacing unless your car is involved in a serious accident.

Gareth, our BMW Catalog Manager is here to walk you through how to replace the rear trailing arms on his very own BMW E92 M3.

Hey FCP, at 10:42 you put it in ride height, but it is my understanding that BMW states, that this has to be achieved by loading the car with weights in specific places and specific weights, and then lowering it to the ground and then measuring the distance between the rim and the wheelhouse edge. Could you please say a couple words about this?

Bay Area Jokester says:

Just found this channel and I love it. Yall just saved me $300 on this repair tutorial alone. Kudos to y'all.

Robert Krikorian says:

Great tutorial. Thanks. Question: plan to upgrade front axle with M3 control arms on my 2011 335d. For the rear, what would make the better change, this Revshift piece or the M3 control arms? Thanks again.

Da Malat says:

This video has confirmed what I've always thought…..no matter how professional the video, how informative the video and how much effort goes into the production and editing, there will always be idiots on YouTube that give a video a thumbs down, no matter what !! Great video, very well put together and thank you for sharing.

George B says:

Anyone know if the BMW E90 M3 rear toe control arm fits the standard E90 335? Positioned at the Rear Lower Rearward of the axle.

J Mullner says:

I waited over a month after ordering to get mine and they arrived in a raw silver finish, not powder coated black like in the video and on your website…

Take the Cake says:

One of these is bent on my E92 and I’m so glad you guys made this

Eckoes says:

will do this very soon

Tobin Abraham says:

So I'm pretty sure I gotta do everything on the rear but can't go about doing everything at once. The rear left the camber goes negative (dispite an alignment) and eats away at the inner rim of the tyre. Where should I start to help the the tyre last until I can finish the up on everything in stages?

Carbon Contrasts says:

My understanding was that the trailing arm was designed like that as it creates crumple points in a accident it won’t snap and tear a hole in your fuel tank ???

vladbulin says:

Great video! Hope more are coming!
