Front Left OEM Strut, Sachs - E36 318i/323i/325i/328i Low Slung M Sport

This E36 318i/323i/325i/328i Sport front strut is a direct replacement for the original. Sachs is an original equipment supplier to BMW for shocks, struts, and mounts so this is a direct replacement to restore the original sport suspension handling and ride. While we offer other shock brands that are more performance-oriented, if you prefer the original BMW ride and handling this is the best choice. Note: even though this part number is associated with the factory sport suspension, Sachs will sometimes combine applications. As the OEM they have determined this is the most suitable shock for the sport suspension. This shock is not suitable for aftermarket lowering springs but will work with factory Sport springs.

Front struts should be replaced in pairs so order a left and a right. New mounts, dust boots, spring pads, and bump stops are sold separately. This part number replaces original BMW part number 31311091269.

This is an OEM front strut manufactured by Sachs - an original supplier to BMW for this part, as well as many other suspension components. As the OEM it meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. OEM parts are the best alternative to more expensive Original BMW parts because they are virtually identical without the inflated price tag. This part has a two year warranty.
