Description
Ref: GCSpanner

This is a replacement spanner for Ground Control coilover kits.

This spanner is included only in certain GC coilover kits, so if your GC coilover kit included a spanner, then you do not need to buy this.

The most common misconception why people think they may need a spanner, is that they are tilting the car on its side to adjust the collars, so they are fighting the swaybars. The swaybars are designed to keep the car from tilting by pushing against the suspension, which makes it difficult to turn the adjuster by hand.

A spanner could easily ruin things if used under these conditions.

If this describes your situation, try lifting the front or rear of the car off the ground, and adjust with your hands.

Powerflex uprated suspension bushes, available in 'STREET' for normal road use or 'BLACK' for track/racing use.

Polyurethane has been with us as a specialised plastic for some thirty years. However recent advances have now made it possible to engineer very special properties into this exciting material. Suspension bushes are some of the most highly stressed components fitted to a motor car. They undergo enormous strains and in the most arduous of conditions with no maintenance or lubrication.

The material that OEM bushes are manufactured from, is a rubber compound containing natural products which deteriorate with age. It becomes softer and more pliable, resisting the forces placed on it less and less. Therefore allowing more and more movement of suspension components and offering less and less control over the suspension geometry.

This in turn causes accelerated tyre wear, braking instability and poor handling. This is the single biggest reason you can instantly tell the difference driving a three year old car compared to a showroom new one. However even new cars will benefit from POWERFLEX bushes because of their superior design they offer much more effective control of the suspension components to a much greater extent than normal rubber items.

POWERFLEX for prolonged tyre life. With the technological advances in the material used, it has been possible to overcome the common problem associated with harder bushes, which is increased noise. By correctly engineering the polyurethane compound, bushes can be made 25-30% stiffer than new rubber items but with exactly the same noise absorbing properties.

POWERFLEX bushes make sense.
POWERFLEX for improved performance.
POWERFLEX for increased safety.

Get the handling your E39 M5/540 that it deserves!

As BMW E39 M5/540s get higher in mileage, you can start to feel a shimmy that occurs in the front suspension at highway speeds. This often gets worse while braking, which makes it feel like tires are out of balance or rotors are out-of-round. The common problem is that the front thrust arm bushings go bad, leaving for handling that has much to be desired. Instead of replacing the factory front thrust arm bushings every 60k miles (less if driven hard), our solution is designed to to outlast and outperform the factory bushing.

Rogue Engineering's Thrust Arm Bushings (TABs) is an elegant, engineered solution to this issue. How do we do it? See below how we sweat the details.

No Need to Stress Out

One of the biggest reasons why the factory E39 M5/540 thrust arm bushings (BMW p/n 31-12-0-006-482) wear out so quickly is that they are continually under stress (load). As you drive the car, the factory thrust arm bushings have continual torsional loads being exerted onto the bushings while driving. This continuous twisting load on the on the inside of the bushing is the beginning of the end for the factory bushing. Some people have tried to used factory X5 bushings as replacements (BMW p/n 31-12-6-769-715) with better results, but we're looking to resolve this in a big way.

Rogue Engineering's TABs are designed allow the thrust arm to move without this spring load, but instead, allowing movement though its range without this specific resistance. By allowing the center bolt sleeve to pivot instead of our custom urethane-silicone bushings smoothly, there is no unnecessary wear and tear.

Another Urethane Bushing?

Some will try to compare the Rogue Engineering Thrust Arm Bushings to a currently available urethane replacements. There is a big difference! Instead of using urethane to control the entire area of deflection, we've engineered an aluminum housing to reduce the ID of the hole of the thrust arm bushing. By doing this, we can fine tune the urethane compound so that we can get performance without unwanted NVH. In order to get our level of deflection control, other companies would have to make their entire bushing so incredibly hard that their product would either vibrate, squeak or both!

Handling Improvements

The Rogue Engineering TABs does more than reduced unwanted thrust arm movement and extend bushing life. By producing the RE TAB with a centered configuration, we slightly reduce the vehicle's excessive factory front caster. This means better steering wheel response in everyday and performance driving.

Get in Control!

Are you looking for more control over the front end of your BMW? We've got the solution for you!

While the stock front tension arm bushings are designed to offer a compliant ride while trying to control the front, it cannot overcome age, added power, or increase use (like at the track).

This front bushing takes a large share of the suspension load under braking and hard cornering. Our solution is designed to to outlast and outperform the factory bushing in many ways.

Rogue Engineering's Tension Arm Bushings (TABs) is an elegant, engineered solution to this issue.

Rogue Engineering's TABs are designed allow the thrust arm to move without this spring load, but instead, allowing movement though its range without this specific resistance. By allowing the centre bolt sleeve to pivot instead of our custom urethane-silicone bushings smoothly, there is no unnecessary wear and tear.

Our exclusive, made in USA, urethane bushing has all the same properties as the other bushings Rogue Engineering produces. A special silicone formula is injected into each and every bushing mold during the casting process to ensure a lubricious film impregnated at all times (even without grease!).

Another Urethane Bushing?
Some will try to compare the Rogue Engineering Thrust Arm Bushings to a currently available urethane replacements. There is a big difference! Instead of using urethane to control the entire area of deflection, we've engineered an aluminum housing to reduce the ID of the hole of the thrust arm bushing. By doing this, we can fine tune the urethane compound so that we can get performance without unwanted NVH. In order to get our level of deflection control, other companies would have to make their entire bushing so incredibly hard that their product would either vibrate, squeak or both!

Less unwanted bushing deflection means more control! Take control of your BMW! These bushings are available in our STREET compound (black) or TRACK compound (blue).

This product fits the following vehicles:
- F8X M2, M3, M4, E9x M3

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.

Description
A popular and inexpensive upgrade for the transmission mount is the installation of the BMW 320i tranny mount.

Originally used on the older E21 3-series, it's cylindrical shape deflects less than the mounts found on recent BMWs. Installing the 320i mounts requires very little modification, and it yields significantly less deflection without any additional vibration or otherwise uncomfortable side effect.

Testing of the stock E36 M3 tranny mount and the 320i mount showed that the 320i mount deflected 24% less than the E36 M3 version (a good thing). In the effort to find a solution that would yield even greater results, UUC Motorwerks began research the various options.

There are replacement aftermarket tranny mount systems which do a notable job of addressing transmission movement, but at the expense of excessive interior cabin vibration. Additionally, such system can cost upwards of a few hundred dollars. Like all UUC Motorwerks products, our goal is to create products which can be used in a daily driver while maintaining the benefits for performance driving. Such is the case with the Tranny Mount Enforcer.

The Tranny Mount Enforcer is an add-on piece to the 320i mount which inhibits a noticeable degree of deflection. The Tranny Mount Enforcer is CNC'd from 6061-T6 aluminum. For best results, we recommend using the specially-designed UUC Transmission Mount Bushings which do not require the slight modification to the transmission cross brace that the 320i bushings do.

UPRATED TRANSMISSION MOUNTS BLACK

!!! LIFETIME WARRANTY - INCLUDING RACE USE !!!

New mechanical retention system on all UUC isolated transmission mounts (red or black) and engine mounts. This design uses a bonded end plate plus an inner plate embedded in the urethane. This inner plate prevents separation of the mount assembly even under excessive force.

Black isolated urethane transmission mount bushings. These offer excellent drivetrain motion control and are a vailable with or without transmission mount enforcer cups (combination of bushings and enforcer cups strongly recommended for E36 M3). The transmission mount is an integral part of the drivetrain support which isolates the cabin from powertrain vibration and noise when you drive your car. To understand the technicalities of the transmission mount, there are a few items that should covered.

Vibration Absorber.
First and foremost, the purpose of a transmission mount is to isolate vibration from the interior cabin. Without it, your interior cabin noise will increase to the point where it would be uncomfortable to drive any significant amount of time.

Deflection Fighter
The transmission mount is also used to combat transmission/powertrain movement during driving. Since the transmission is connected to the back of the engine, it is the engine which is doing the twisting when one accelerates or decelerates (engine braking). Since the engine has it's own mounts, the transmission also has it's own. Whereas some movement is expected, too much movement will cause the transmission to become misaligned with the interior of the car. When the transmission is not in the same position, it may lead "mis-shifting" (shifting into the incorrect gear). Generally, a mis-shift causes an engine to over-rev and cause extensive internal damage. Especially in an E36 M3, it generally means a few thousand dollars in repairs (and that's why they call it the "money shift"!).

The Ideal Mount
The ideal transmission mount will both absorb vibration as the factory intended as well as minimize the amount of transmission movement during spirited driving. By firming up the transmission mounts, your gear shifts will become more precise than when you car was new from the factory.

UUC bushings even incorporate the small notch required for certain models including E46 330i/Ci 6-speed.

Hundreds of drivers from daily driven cars to full blown race cars have gained the benefit of the TME with near elimination transmission movement. Speedvision teams such as TC Kline, Turner Motorsport, and ERT to name a few, have all benefited from the TME. Are you next?

UPRATED TRANSMISSION MOUNTS BLUE

!!! LIFETIME WARRANTY - INCLUDING RACE USE !!!

New mechanical retention system on all UUC isolated transmission mounts (blue or black) and engine mounts. This design uses a bonded end plate plus an inner plate embedded in the urethane. This inner plate prevents separation of the mount assembly even under excessive force.

These are fully isolated, having two separate mounting bolt hardware pieces embedded in the material just like the black rubber and OE BMW bushings. The urethane is a higher durometer (stiffer) material than the rubber and offers nearly the same drivetrain motion control as a solid delrin or aluminum mount, but with significant vibration isolation. That last detail makes it a better choice for a track car that is occasionally street-driven, where cabin noise is a concern. While UUC does expect some vibration transmitted into the cabin, initial user reports say that it is minimal and certainly acceptable.

First and foremost, the purpose of a transmission mount is to isolate vibration from the interior cabin. Without it, your interior cabin noise will increase to the point where it would be uncomfortable to drive any significant amount of time.

UPRATED TRANSMISSION MOUNTS BOLT THROUGH RACE RED

!!! LIFETIME WARRANTY - INCLUDING RACE USE !!!

New mechanical retention system on all UUC isolated transmission mounts (red or black) and engine mounts. This design uses a bonded end plate plus an inner plate embedded in the urethane. This inner plate prevents separation of the mount assembly even under excessive force.

Red urethane bolt-through transmission mount bushings are the strongest choice. A single bolt through the entire piece eliminates any possibility of bushing material failure even under the most abusive conditions. Offers effectively the same drivetrain motion control as a solid delrin or aluminum mount, but with some vibration isolation to reduce vibratory stress on mechanical components. Cabin vibration significantly lower than delrin/aluminum solid mounts, but still noticeable.
