Good luck guys on this, I have the strong strut myself and the quality is unbelivable but I don't recomend using the acorn nuts that it comes with it. I had some problems with them and I know other people that did two. So get a set of OEM's to use instead and please don't make a costly mistake trying to reuse the ones that was in your car because they are one time use type nuts.

Yes I have the complete kit, the acorn nuts don't provide the correct depth so they will not provide the full tighteness that our suspension require, In other words they will bottom out too soon but It's almost not notecible. Also I had this problem twice, the parts will move getting out of position as the time passes.
I will try to get the part numbers for the hardware needed. |

you get the entire set with the plastic tower caps as you pictured it. Somewhere along the line BMW changed the hardware for the FW braces from a vertical threaded post that accepts a nut, to a threaded chassis that accepts a hex head bolt threaded down into it. In the case of the latter, the 10 mm acorn nuts for the FW braces don't fit so we don't send them.

depends upon the total number of orders. The more orders, the lower the price. However, we have not raised our prices in 5 years although our material and manufacturing costs have increased substantially. We will do the very best that we can for all of you with regard to price.

I never believed I had a need to report this since I'm very satisfied with the STRONG-Strut Product and that until not long ago I believed that was only me having problems. As of my recommendation for OEM I based myself on the experience that I had using different (claimed better, or as good) Nuts, and the Great quality of the ones from BMW that did not ever gave me any problems.

Also none of the suspensions that we used was OEM so I can't say nothing about the use of the Acorn nuts on OEM suspensions.

Interested depending on when and the discount, very tentative as I have personal things going on. Possible move, new job, etc.

"Now it is making sense, he had an aftermarket suspension and apparently the threaded studs were taller than stock. This WOULD cause the acorn nut to bottom out and not be snugged down. Had he contacted us at the time we would have sent him some extra, matching, stainless steel washers." |
