KONI 8750-1011L Front Nearside Damper Strut for BMW E36 3 Series

Transform the way your E36 drives with the KONI 8750-1011L front left shocker. This OE-spec, gas-charged twin-tube strut delivers crisp steering response, excellent body control and confidence on British roads. It is a straight swap for the original unit, locating on the standard top pin and lower clamp for a clean, no-hassle install. Expect the trademark KONI orange quality, refined ride comfort and assured stability without the need for adjusters.

We fit these on customer builds and our own cars and the feedback is consistently strong. Owners report tighter turn-in, reduced roll and a planted front end that inspires confidence in wet and dry conditions. If you want a premium replacement that doubles as a subtle performance upgrade, this is a superb choice.
