love the update! tip: apply some downward pressure on the ball joint with a pry bar between the knuckle and control arm while you hit the knuckle with a hammer. also, those ball joints look like they have an allen head on the end to counter hold against the nut.
When you cut threaded stock you don't actually have to file 'in' the threads, just file the whole edge down a little rounding it off slightly. Then, as you did, run the nut you left on the bar off and it will be perfect. I learned that trick from an old farm hand a million years and it has served me very well since. Good job!
Duuuude, that 330 in the junkyard had the Mtech One front bumper. Those are hard to come by in good shape, and would have transformed the front end of your car!
Jimmy oaks wants some black grills, he’s got silver so a free swap. It your going to run without inner fender liners, clean it out good with wax and degreaser cleaner and spray it down with Eastwood rust converter, encapsulator then raptor liner. Keep all those bits rust free as possible, it will look great as well. Depending on the wrap you use you could do them in red or black.
Yeah I had a crazy vibration issue for a bit and I replaced the front lower control arms and then did rear subframe bushings and diff bushing as well as the chassis plates and then notice that one was flat and then when I went to patch it I noticed it had a massive delamination on the inside of the tire making it too weak for road speeds
Love the wagon content. Watching these videos gets my hyped to prep my manual swapped IS300 Sportcross. As for colors please please please wrap this thing Absolute Red. Super bright red looks so damn good on the e34, e36, and e46 tourings. 🤘🏻
let me know how you like the adapters, i found they ruined my caster angle and made daily driving feel very weird. i found that steering rack spacers provide better feel when drifting and allow for a bit more angle . if you dont like the adapters try the steering rack spacers. this is what chelsea denofa reccomends aswell. i also found near full lock with adapters on the wheel would self steer itself to lock and it would be stuck at lock
I have weird problem on my 330d e46. It is my winter beater and i drove it to snow ditch, not deep but didnt have tow hook on my car so i had to pull it from wheel very hard. It might have gotten my rear subframe twisted or something weird. After that incident the rear end feels like it is pulling side to side constantly when accelerating over 60km/h. It feels like strong wind pushing the rear and i have to fix it by steering and it feels super sketchy to ride. I changed polyurethane bushings to the whole rear end since the diff was also clunking and mounting bushings were pretty much shot, alot of play. Still problem didnt go away. My theory is either something is twisted, arm or whole subframe or since the toe alignment holes didnt have enough adjustment on them and i couldnt align it to have same toe values on both sides. Now it is if i remember right -0.50 toe on right side and -0.20 on left. So car doesnt basically do straight. But weird thing is before winter and all this i aligned it and values were -0.20 left and -1.0 on right. Car went perfectly straight back then. Also had to change tie rod on front right since it snapped while pulling the car from the ditch. Very tired of this problem and might park the beater on workplace and have it wait for summer while i buy other winter beater for the end of the winter. If you guys have any ideas what might be the problem message, thx.
How ironic, that here I am with my E61 wagon and am having the same issue with the steering wheel shake at like 60-85. when I put my stock wheels on, its not there. but when I put on my bigger wheels, they shake like crazy. Happened to my last set too. Maybe I should get them roadforce balanced to see if that does anything
i absolutely love it. it’s very hard to hop in another car with no angle after being used to this car. 15k+ miles and haven’t had to retorque anything in the suspension. it makes the car so nimble. highly recommend
bro stick to door dash videos, im pretty sure 90% of the audience whats that content my g!! Or post a video of you hanging with the guys smoking weed talking shit. thats a good video as well 💯💯
17:44 got to the best clip I have ever seen lmao!
This too 17:24

I like how you used the chassis paint to prevent the knuckle rusting where you ground it, meanwhile the rest of the knuckle is already rusty XD
we gottta wrap it midnight purple my boy
1:20 Wrap it purple or red, or green fasho
Dark red would be really clean for the E46
I think some kind of violet/ dark purple would go hard.
The angle morning really noticable when at a stand still u feel it more while driving cause that’s when u can hit true max angle
I like the m539 editing vibes.
You’re also getting way better a drifting, keep it up
I think Estoril Blue from the e36 m3 could be a nice color, or Fire Orange from the e92 m3 (but I'm biased orange is my favorite color)
U can see the improvement in the car and ur driving keep up the great work
THAT AMOUNT OF ANGLE IS CRAZYYYY

DAMNNN THIS FOOTAGE OLD😭 from when i pulled up to the shop during the rack install jesus. baller ass wagon man hope you enjoy the angle blocks my guy
I have loved every one of your videos since I saw your first E30 doordash video. You inspire me to make my car better every day. Thanks Joel
I love the M50 e30 joel but youve inspired me to save up for a wagon. Unsure on 2.5 or 3l though as would like to turbo it.
I installed angle kits on an e30 an 2 e46's, they all had the same play in the rack
dakar yellow would look so sick on this thing!
You could use washer on inner tie rod
its always a good day when joel drops a banger
wrap it black, clear corners and side markers 👍
brun gold for the wrap, thats hard man
That will be sick, and whit black wheels
darkish red wrap would be tuff. keep up the good content
Nice bro! I'm looking at getting a set of these adaptors for my 330ci
thanks for the part number off the front bumper, looked it up before and couldnt find anything
let me know how you like the adapters, i found they ruined my caster angle and made daily driving feel very weird. i found that steering rack spacers provide better feel when drifting and allow for a bit more angle . if you dont like the adapters try the steering rack spacers. this is what chelsea denofa reccomends aswell. i also found near full lock with adapters on the wheel would self steer itself to lock and it would be stuck at lock
Merry Christmas
metallic midnight blue
I think black would be a safe but cool choice man
I think white would look noice 👌

Do you daily driver with the welded diff? What's it like and how often do you have to change tyres?
It’s basically not noticeable, tire wear with normal driving is negligible.
@@BUDRS thanks bro
Royal blue with light blue metallic, maybe in matt

How is the angle mod for daily driving?
i absolutely love it. it’s very hard to hop in another car with no angle after being used to this car. 15k+ miles and haven’t had to retorque anything in the suspension. it makes the car so nimble. highly recommend
Wrap it a nice darkish green you won’t regret it
what happened to the E34 Build ?
every damn e46 ive seen at my junkyard has ebay headers its so clutch cause ebay doesnt sell them anymore 😂
Are e46 mtechs not sought after?

Laguna Seca blue?
Possibly more DoorDash vids soon?
Yo where’s the E34 at bring t back we need an update
