There isn't that muich to know about e36 standard suspension, there are no "various standard set ups" to my knowledge, other than the E36 coupes are all 10mm lower than the 4 doors, as standard.

For more info on part numbers etc, try www.realoem.com

I am starting to work on the set-up of my E36 318. I am not a power-monger. I usually mod every car I own but its always suspension and brakes. Lowered set-ups are no use to me.

Can anyone direct me to a comprehensive set of info about springs and dampers?

I am surprised there is not clearer information on any forums, here or elsewhere, about the various standard set-ups, spring dimensions, damper setting, bushes, strut spacers and so on.

(Anyone got a set of 320 or 323 E36 front springs lying around? Standard or M.)
