New Car! | Samsquanch's S52 swapped E36 | Fixing Death Wobble

- Samsquanch's S52 swapped E36 is some love! The death wobble in his worn-out front suspension and haggard wheels has finally motivated Samsquanch to do something about it.
We get it into the air and confirm that the E46 control arms and sway bar links are shot. New control arms go in along with sway bar end-links, tie rods, and the 'eBay' angle kit that's been sitting around for the last year.
On the first run didn't go so well. We tried to put in E90 inner tie-rods because they're longer than E36 tie rods and fit right into the E36 rack. Despite this mod being a popular recommendation on BMW forums, the thread just didn't go far enough down the rod to align the car and we had to go back to the stock ones, which fortunately were still in great shape.
Another failure we encountered was installing E36 M3 sway bar end-links. The BC Coilovers on the car have a mounting point for them, and from what we understand, they should connect to the arms just find, but they looked like they interfered with steering and the were pulling on the sway bar in strange ways. No good. We pulled them and put back the terribly worn non-M E36 end links which simply connect from the sway bars to the control arms.
After that the test drive had fixed about 50% of the 50-60 MPH death wobble, and the steering was MUCH quicker, but frankly it was still pretty crappy. New end-links arrived and were installed while Coose and Jonas give Samsquanch hell for stubbornly not changing out his questionable wheels.
The second test drive showed another big improvement, but with the suspension completely refreshed, the wheels are the next target for sure. That's going to be cool though as Samsquanch has plans to retrofit his BMW Style 71 two-piece wheels with some pretty aggressive Work lips and barrels soon. Of course we expect for that to mean steel widebody modifications...but we'll see.

I had to do the same thing on my 36. It felt like it wanted to kill you anytime you go over 55 lol
I had a wobble on my e46 touring replaced all the front end components then when I put my winter wheels on my wobble went away. Magic!!
Glad to have all the new stuff though.
Haha! I keep telling him he should try different wheels!..
Operation make samsquantch drift again! I approve 😍
Wallace is the cutest omg
Wallace is a good boi in training haha Operation Samsquanch Skid is in full effect
@@JonasVanHorn wallace gon b a stud for sure ❤ cant wait to see you guys back out on track !😍
YES, some e36 content, also, check the driveshaft guibo
Glad y’all fixed the death woo Le we definitely don’t want that
Bent wheels are probably what killed the control arm ball joints lol
No doubt the shimmy helped kill the arms.
Anotha dope content and a cleannnn Beamer I like it🔥🔥 The exhaust drones sound stupid nice
Thank you very much ❤️ I appreciate it!
Favourite E36 😍 stay safe during covid19 boys
M3 mirrors....coooool
Replace the power steering rack bushings
Yesss samsquanch!!! so hype
Hell yeee!
I’m fighting same thing with my e36 😂 have same setup as you swapped wheels and still have wobble in wheel over 70 , does your steering roll over when it gets close to lock ? Glad y’all put this vid out. Now I know another soul is experiencing this ha ha I’m about to go back to no angle setup stock arms and all
Front wheel balance !
Added hub centric rings last night (duh?). Helped a lot
depending on what bmw he got those wheels off it could most def be the center bore of the wheel if they are from an e39 he needs to get hubcentric rings to center the wheel on the hub i had this issue on my style 32s i got off an e39 e36 center bore is 72.5 e39 is 73.6 or something
nice video men. i like e36
Check out the ball joints too
Control arms are new, so are outer tie rods and sway bar links. Inner tie rods and steering coupler were checked and like new.
@@JonasVanHorn oh awesome, I didn't know the control arm come with new ball joints. Thank god I know nothing about BMW's 🤭👍
got the opposite problem in my e36. The rear is wobbling like crazy at 60 lol. I dont really care because its my beater.
Well I guess eighteen divided by four is six...
fucking amazing
You’re amazing
Wheel not seating flush on rotor hub???
the coolest dad
100%
Can i put e46 arms in my e36? and what components are needed
I have been having a shake and vibration in my wheel since throwing e46 arms , e90 inner tie rods , using stock e36 outers and no eBay lock adapters or anything . Had to chop a good bit off the tie rods to get the toe right but it’s all in spec . Tried multiple wheels and there’s this death wobble . Kills the car for me because I threw an s52 and manual swapped it , done a ton of work but really dislike how it drives . Did you ever get rid of that shake completely?
His car still has a bit of shake over 60. It’s not my favorite steering setup.
The thing that made the biggest difference was getting the wheels hub-centric. The wheels were from an e39, and the hubs in those are bigger. So get your wheels fit the hubs exactly and that your wheels are true and tires are balanced, then you should be good.
what size tyres your running on those style 71s. Looking at getting a set myself
205/45/17 front sometimes the same in the rear, sometimes 215/45
What about steering coupler? Cheap.
Did that a few months ago. It’s still like new. Took it out and checked during the process.
Gonna keep commenting on every video till someone tells me what the song is at the end
Keep commenting anyway, but it’s a beat called Clouds we license from a beat maker on RUclips called Syndrome. Check ‘em out!
@@JonasVanHorn fuck yes! Thankyou. I'll keep commenting something
Get some extended oem e36 arms and fuck those shitty e46 arms off they’re dreadful. Oh and loose the roll bar most lowered /drift bms wont run one ❤️
We like the roll/sway bars, but will keep it in mind. Probably will go with extended e36 next time, but the right thing to do is run one of the SLR kits for sure.
100% bent rims
Just found out last night that these 17” Style 71 wheels are for E39s, which have a 1.5mm larger bore than e36. Hub-centric rings are already on the way.
i threw up when i saw it was a saloon🤢
