The World's Best Selling and Best Performing Rear Shock Mount for z3/4/E36/46 Models !

The BMW factory rear shock top mounts are well documented as a very poor design, even when brand new they perform VERY poorly, far too much movement in them, and they are essentially worn out every 20- 30 k miles.

Say goodbye to vague real chessis feel rear end clunks! With the introduction of the Rogue Engineering Rear Shock Mounts, you have a high quality, rebuildable, easily serviceable rear shock mount.

Fits the following vehicles...
All E30, including M3
All E36, including M3, Z3 and 318ti
All E46, including M3
All Z4, including MZ4

Rogue Engineering Rear Shock Mount Set includes:

Two (2) Rogue Engineering 6061-T6 CNC, Anodized Rear Shock Mounts.
Four (4) Shore A 65 Bushings (2 required per mount).
Two (2) 303 Stainless Steel Bushing Spacers (to be used with standard 10mm rear shocks).
Four (4) 303 Stainless Steel Washers (2 required per mount).
Four (4) Yellow Zinc plated serrated lock nuts.
Two (2) Shock Tower Reinforcement Assemblies (with 10.9 hardware welded).
Two (2) factory gaskets (#3352 1128 734).

Problems with Factory Mounts
The factory BMW rear shock mounts are generally a little soft, to provide the most possible acoustically dampening in the vehicle. However, design precludes them from being stout enough to withstand the rigours of aftermarket suspension, or even badly damaged roads. A decent sized pothole can send a perfectly good factory rear shock mount to pop out, making it entirely useless necessitating replacement. Upgrading to E46 M3 rear mounts (a popular alternative) is not a guarantee that it doesn't happen again and again.

Rogue Engineering Rear Shock Mount Features
By producing a rear shock machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, we are able to attain a more stable and stiffer platform which to mount the top of the rear shock. However, rather than use race-only spherical bearings or even overly stiff urethane bushings, we specify Shore A 60 hardness rubber bushings (approximately 30% stiffer than the factory bushings) to allow for street comfort and compliance. Our findings show that overly stiff urethane bushings do not allow the rear shock to move, making the attachment of the lower part of the shock under strain.

The construction of the aluminum shock mount plate and orientation of the bushings makes it impossible for the bushings to "pop out" in the manner which the factory style mounts fail. Since the bushings are rubber, when they require replacement, rebuilding them takes only a matter of minutes. Only 4 bushings require replacement (for a pair of RSMs) and are available at extra cost.

Other important details include the use of 303 stainless steel components (compression washers and spacers) for long-lasting corrosion resistance. All other hardware is metric, and either Grade 8 or better, treated with a yellow zinc plating, again for corrosion resistance.

Another feature is the reinforcement assembly which secures the rear shock mount to the vehicle. By reinforcing the top of the shock tower in the vehicle, it protect against the rear shock from ripping out the sheet metal. The reinforcement has its hardware welded to it, allowing for the rear shock mount to become a bottom-mount design. This means that if the rear shocks need to be removed, it only requires removing the two nuts and the single bolt at the bottom of the shock. No need to completely disassemble the trunk area to gain access. If being used with a rear strut tower brace, the reinforcement assembly may be mounted from the bottom, so that the rear shock mount can be secured in the traditional manner.

The Rogue Engineering Rear Shock Mounts are designed to be used with standard 10mm rear shocks, but can also be used with 12mm adjustable race shocks with the use of optional washers.

Finally, a real performance engine mount for those looking for the extra edge. Until now, the only performance engine mount to really consider was the BMW Motorsport Group N engine mounts priced at an incredible $800/pair! These uber expensive mounts were just like factory engine mounts except they were produced with a harder rubber, approximately 30% stiff than stock.

The Rogue Engineering Performance Engine mount is a affordable alternative to the BMW Motorsport Group N mounts, at a fraction of the price. Because these are produced with isolated mounting plates, it does offer similar vibration dampening characteristics like stock. Of course, because of the harder nature of these bushings, some additional vibration may be experienced, just like the BMW Motorsport Group N engine mounts.

Just like factory, but better
The factory-like design incorporates the anti-rotational tabs ensuring that the mounts do not rotate. Use of these mounts virtually eliminates all deflection created from the engine. This is especially true for high-powered vehicles such as those with turbos or superchargers.

The internals of the mount feature a unique locking system in the event of a crash, the internal hardware of the mounts prevent complete failure of the mount. Whereas the integrity of the mount will be compromised, its internal construction prevents the mounts upper and lower plates from completely tearing away from each other. Whereas this may seem to be a small feature, this will ultimately decrease the chances of the engine from breaching the firewall, and entering the internal compartment of the vehicle. No other performance mount can make this claim.

Additional Features
While these mounts are produced in limited quantities here in the US, we have also built these engine mounts to be 5mm shorter than stock, to allow for lower engine mounting height (lowering the center of gravity). Matching performance transmission mounts are also available with purchase. The mounts include 5mm spacers, in the event the user would like to maintain the factory engine mounting position.

Fits the following vehicles:
All 1992-1999 E36 M3, 328, 325, 323, 318
All 1999-2006 E46 M3, 330, 328, 325, 323
All Z4
All Z3

PLEASE SPECIFY EXACT VEHICLE DETAILS WHEN ORDERING.

Fitting Time: 2.00 hours.

Rogue Engineering RTAB Reinforcements,
Improve the handling of your E36/E46 in less than an hour! These RTAB reinforcement shims limit rear toe suspension changes of the rear trailing arms. These shims fill the voids that the factory rubber bushings, increasing the effective stiffness of the bushing without additional NVH (noise vibration harshness). These shims do not affect ride quality and are perfect for those who are looking for an improvement in handling.

Factory Bushings Don't Last Forever.
Where as the factory rear trailing arm bushings are a common replacement item, few realize that all E36 models (including M3s) use a "light duty" rear trailing arm bushing. Not until the advent of the 1996-1999 M3 was an improved bushing used, to handle the extra power of the later model E36s.
Even if your car is relatively stock, these bushings are known to dry rot and crack, causing diminished performance. Getting regular alignments are pointless unless these are inspected regularly, and replaced when necessary.

Fits the following vehicles:
- All E36, except for Z3/318ti
- All E46, including M3
- All Z4

What is a transmission mount?

The transmission mounts in a BMW are a common part that is frequently overlooked.

The transmission mount is designed to do the following:

Help stabilize the transmission under vehicle load allowing the shifter to engage into gear properly.
Isolate vibration from the drivetrain to the chassis.

Under engine load, the transmission can wiggle left and right slightly, worse when the car is being driven hard into turns. This unwanted movement may potentially causing the driver to miss shift. When we sought to have our own transmission mounts produced, we wanted them to be compliant for street use, with no compromises in performance.

What we have is a transmission mount made from Neoprene rubber, with a completely different shape than the factory mount. The hourglass shape of the factory mount is not the best for stabilizing the transmission. By changing the shape to the cylindrical shape of the Rogue Engineering mount, it reduces deflection significantly, while maintaining damping.

The Rogue Transmission Mounts are sold as a pair, and come with Grade 8 Zinc plated hardware. Unlike other aftermarket mounts, the mounting plate and studs of our mounts have been Cadmium plated to prevent corrosion.

Note: Priced as a pair.
