Started swapping from H&R Races/Bilstiens to Koni Adjustables and H&R Sports at DJs place, which is like E36 heaven.
I started the car in the street, took off the rear wheels, popped out the rear shocks and found out I have rogue engineering solid mounts installed in good condition. Score! I popped in the springs, and went about reassembling the shock mounts on top of the Koni's. A quick trip to home depot for the right thread pitch on the shock mount nut, and we got the rears back in.

Didn't really have a lot of time to take detailed photos. By the time the rear of the car was on the ground it was 4:30, and I was starting to lose daylight and was supposed to be home for dinner with my better half's sister by 7:00. I did get a few shots.

The fronts took everything I had to swap out in 2 hours. As usual everything was stuck together and harder to reassemble than you think, but I got it done and got the f*ck home by 7:05 somehow.
This morning I wiped the car down and vacuumed her out for a little parking lot photoshoot with the new rims.
