If your are going to do the 7 series swap the 7 in question is the E32. Rod seems to know a great deal about the proper break set up as well as part numbers. An archive search will also reveal quite a bit of information. Maximillian Importing Co., is a great source for parts and they have a very knowledgeable staff, prepared to help you with this upgrade. In regards to the 750/850 thrust arm bushings you should consult with Maximillian Importing Co., (partsforbmws.com) or Frank Fahey Motorsports (FrankFaheyMotorsports.com) to source the correct modified 750/850 thrust arm bushings. The Upper control arm bushings usually are the cause of shaking as they take a great deal of abuse under breaking. But shaking is not necessarily limited to those parts as it can be caused by wear and tear on other suspension parts and or worn rotors. To fit the E28/24 the bushings must be machined down to size (the 56mm center is taken down to 50mm and the outer steel shell is brought down to 43mm) The E32 750 bushings follow part number 31 12 1 136 607.
