A slight misconception..perhaps a bit more
to repair your LAD rear suspension, but by the time you purchase a delete kit and new shocks and
"springs" and parts to retrofit your struts to accomodate conventional shock/spring set-up,
(re: Bentley) the economics work out pretty close.
Arguments either way on this one..I elected to
refurbish mine and have no regrets..but may delete some day...pro in favor of deletion is
weight savings of approx 40 lbs.
Either choice is good...if you carry many passengers you may want to keep it.
Best Regards,

Can some one help me as to how to conver my 750il rear hydraulic suspension to standard as the system is leaking slightly and I was told it could cost a bomb to repair.

Thanks
