I'm also wrapping up a 323i to 320i conversion ('80 323i to a 83 320is. Here's an excellent website that will answer just about every question you could have.

Specifically though, the control arms are the same..probably curved because of the accident damage?



I am doing a 323i - 320 conversion from a '79 323i to a '77 320. Looking at the front suspension it appears that the lower control arms are a different shape (curved a little on 323i). I cant take accurate measurements between cars as 323 has accident damage. What can I change in the front end? What do I have to keep from 320? Any feedback appreciated.
