AHHH!!! Jake I'm so happy to hear you're really going to dive back into you're 135i!! I was worried there for that year or so! I love your videos and your cars please keep it up and I wish you all the success you can get! Thank you.

Much appreciate your level of detail, and quality camera and lighting. Thanks for sharing with the Community 👊🏽

Ayeee your back !! Please keep the vids coming !! Just bought an E92 335i manual so I’d love to watch some N54 content !! Forgot to add I got mine with 64k miles !!

I really appreciate this video, crazy how I was looking at Bc coilovers for my beamer. Can't wait for the next video!

Please upload more, I bought a 335i back in July and I’ve been looking for a coil over install video forever

Ordered these today. Thanks for the DIY.

Came here from Instagram reels few weeks days back, Start watching 10 videos a day! You are awesome!! Love the way you take care of your car, inspires me to take care of mine

Good job! I saw another video where you could just take off the control arms to the knuckle or the subframe I can’t remember, but then slide the knuckle off the strut and you should have been able to pull it out no problem without compressing the spring.

I absolutely love you car man, i’m searching for a e90 too! Love it

Wow, very good choice Jake. That will make a huge difference. Dutch regards, Nico.

Sheesh 🔥🔥🔥 glad to see an upload keep doing your thing 🤛🏻🤘🏻💪🏻

I love my BRs. Surprised by how soft they are, actually. Perfect for daily driving. Glad I went with these instead of DS and/or swift spring upgrade, because these are awesome just how they are.

Swift are da best!

Great video thanks for making it for us. One quick tip, you shouldn't have to lengthen the sway bar links supplied. you do however need to disconnect both ends to adjust the sway bar to fit the new links. You'll probably want to run them for ideal geometry

Great video bro! what size extension did you get for the damper control?

FYI, I installed these in place of Bilstein B8s and H&R springs. The BCs, on full soft, ride better. I suggest you go back and install the adjustable endlinks. You’ll have to set the car level to do it. You’ll appreciate the handling with no preload on your front swaybar. Hope you get it back up and on the road soon.

I used WD40 on the strut pinch mount and shock mount on the rears before removing any bolts and by the time I have to remove the shocks a little wiggle and it slid right out easy along with the spreading tool.

Nice Video Jake....what about the alignment should they do it? In your opinion, who makes a good alignment?

@@jake_spence will do, won't be a super accurate comparison a since I'll be doing all SPL suspension at the same time but the guy I bought them from said they are amazing

I have a similar set and the rear shocks for some reason are adjustable so just wondering did you set them to be screws all the way in

Bout to order some for my 330i soon

How different are the ds ones from the br? I know they have digressive pistons but what does that mean for a daily driver / canyon Carver?

And these videos are amazing btw. looking on doing this build just waiting for the user car market to drop.

how did you post a comment 4 days ago when the video was posted today

great video! what spring rates are you running?

The spring collar is not used to adjust ride height, just preload.

Why is there no rubber spring bushings in the rear like what you removed from the stock rear spring.. I wonder if that's why they have bad nvh and other noise

What did you do about the alignment?

I ordered these and the front 2 did not have the little nipped that sits it in place on the control arm. How do I know the right placement of the coilovers on the arm?

What wheels are those currently on the car?

Your diy’s are very easy to follow, and we need the 135i back in action 🔥

what wheels are on the e90 😍lmk so i can get those

What wheels are on the e90

did u ever switch back to the adjustable endlinks?

Normal Br or extreme drop?

Where did you get the m tech bumper ? I have a 335i coupe and I wanna get tech bumper for it

Are these the normal br series or the extreame lows?

What are the wheel specs and tires size?

What name wheels or you running on offset tires please. I have the same car but I need some wheels

Great work Jake! I love my Milwaukee stuff too. I can’t wait to use mine more. #weltspeed #projectweltspeed

Oh man i need this on my e92. Only thing is i have to redo my whole driveway 😂 its too high

I'm looking a this same set for my 335is. I actually need to raise the rear a tiny bit because of that weird squat the stock suspension does, it keeps rubbing the tire on the fender with my 18x10 Apex ec-7s.

Do we know how this is holding up today?

You are meant to use the allen key to hold the shock's piston from turning, and then tighten the nut using the wrench. Not that it really matters, but you are needlessly rotating the piston seal against the shock inner wall.

hey not sure if your aware but this video doesn’t pop up on your home page or recent videos it’s only on the 335 playlist.

So how do you adjust or lower the back? The more thread on the spring the lower it gets?

@AltezzaDrifter

The rears get lowered at the strut, the spring adjustment is for preload. That should just be snug against the spring, you shouldn't be tightening it way down or loosening it too much.

@InTuneGarage

@@AltezzaDrifter The rears are lowered by adjusting the spring not the strut, the strut adjust is just for changing the geometry if you adjusted the spring. Where the spring sits underneath the adjustable collar, that is what you use to adjust the rears. It's in the BC Book

​@@InTuneGarage the spring is responsible for preload, the strut is responsible for ride height. It is this way on every coilover setup I have ever worked on and I don't think this is any different. If I understand your point correctly, you're saying you adjust the spring first and then "change the geometry" (aka - ride height) on the strut if you adjusted the spring. This is just the backwards version of what I'm saying, I think we agree but view it two different ways. You have to adjust the spring preload any time you adjust the strut on these cars since they're separate pieces, but the strut is what actually controls your ride height properly, the spring preload should always be adjusted to be the same tension regardless of height. If you lower with the spring and do nothing with the strut, the car will go lower, but you're closer to maxing out your strut travel and causing premature wear.

@@AltezzaDrifter on the e90 335i (my car) the strut and spring setup is seperate in the rear its not a "true" coilover for the BC Racing DS-DA coilovers which is what i have. the spring has a little twist thing to change and thats how you adjust it, it writes it in the manual youre given too for these cars.
