Reinforcement Plates Rear Shock Mounts suitable for BMW E36 & E46
The reinforcement plates for the rear shock mounts of the BMW E36 and E46 serve to structurally reinforce the rear shock towers, which are exposed to high loads during spirited driving, track days, or drifting. Especially with stiffer suspension setups or high-performance configurations, the factory mount can deform, fatigue, or even crack.
Why this Shock Mount Reinforcement?
- ✔ Increased stability of the rear shock mounts
- ✔ Prevents cracks & deformation under high suspension loads
- ✔ Longer lifespan of the body structure
- ✔ Perfect complement to suspension and strut tower reinforcements
- ✔ Mandatory upgrade for ambitious track tools
