For E36 convertible models with standard suspension
If your BMW's ride feels a little bouncy or you can feel clunks in the suspension while it's going over bumps it is likely due to worn strut assemblies and shock absorbers. The purpose of the strut assembly is it act as a central pivot point for the front suspension while housing the coil spring. It also dampens the compression and rebound of the coil spring as the suspension moves up and down. If you are looking to keep your ride factory look no further than Sachs.
Per BMW you must also replace the bump stop when installing new strut assemblies. FCP also recommends installing new strut mounts to complete the installation.
