PERFECT FOR GETTING STARTED
The long-awaited Wisefab Do-It-Yourself Kit for the BMW E46 is finally here! Have you always wanted to drive Wisefab in your E46, but it was too expensive or too wide for your car?
Now you have the opportunity to modify the OEM wishbones of an E36 (yes, you read that right! E36 wishbones in the E46) and build the kit to suit your needs.
It requires some measuring, cutting and welding, of course - but the result is a cost-effective and high-performing steering angle kit that is suitable for both competition and street use (without MOT! At your own risk!).
AT PRO KIT LEVEL
The bearing add-on is the same classic Wisefab part that has been used on the Pro kits for many years. The wishbone extension, lock stopper, bearing housing and the bearing itself are also made from the same material used in the Pro-Kits.
IMPROVED KINEMATICS AND GEOMETRY
Due to the optimized chassis geometry, the camber of the front wheels remains stable over the entire steering range and thus always offers you perfect grip on the front wheels.
An increased roll center improves the feedback you get from your steering and reduces body roll in corners and during rapid changes of direction. This optimization of the roll center even allows the front anti-roll bar to be removed.
Since the spread can become a problem with such large steering angles, this point was also optimized without minimizing the restoring forces. Instead, the restoring forces are almost constant and easy to control over the entire steering range thanks to sophisticated kinematics.
Furthermore, the geometry was designed in such a way that, despite the high steering angle, the steering cannot jam when the steering is fully turned.
MEASUREMENTS
The camber plates are here though not included but can be purchased separately and also combines perfectly with the DIY kit.
Tie rods (inside and outside) are also not included. However, the required parts can easily be obtained from any auto parts dealer. Use Ford/Mazda part number EC0132240 or YL8Z3280EA for inner tie rods. For the tie rod ends we recommend Ford/Mazda part number EC0132280 or 5L843289AA.
Attention: When buying tie rods, make sure that the inner end (rack side) has M14x1,5 male thread and the outer end M16x1,5 male thread.
Important! Be sure to read the installation instructions before and after your purchase. This gives a good overview of the tools required and the amount of work required: installation instructions
