Stage 1 - E46 Subframe Mount Reinforcement Plates
Fits: All E46 Non-M, E46 M3 (Excluding Hatch)
Benefits:
-Maximum coverage compared to any reinforcement plate kit available
-Envelopes and reinforces a huge range of stress concentrations and common cracks
-Unique plug locations to tie directly into the female threaded body and existing structural joins within the RACP
-Distributes load over the largest possible area
-Incorporates multiple planes for maximum rigidity
-Bridges the gap in the frame rail a the rear two mounts.
-Prevents catastrophic chassis failure.
Note: These products require welding to install.
Recommendations:
-As a minimum preliminary reinforcement, pair this product with our Stage 1.5 - E46 Chassis Rail Plates.
Material:
-2mm 250MPa yield zinc coated mild steel (zincanneal)
Reinforcing the rear subframe mounts on an E46 chassis is a job you only want to do once and a job worth doing right. We specialise in this department and have spent years refining our chassis reinforcement products to be the best out there!
This kit was specifically engineered to offer the highest level of strength possible providing significant coverage for better stress distribution and rigidity.
Compare our plates to any other and you'll see our bends are precision CNC folded to the precise angle, our bolt holes are spot on and the additional slots line up with factory welds (in black marker).
