Heads-up on cancellations & returns: if you cancel an order or return an item, you won't get back 100% of what you paid. We apply a 10% restocking fee, the outbound shipping is non-refundable, and we have to pass on Shopify / PayPal payment processing fees; these aren't returned to us when we refund you. International orders also lose on exchange-rate spread in both directions. If the original packaging is damaged or missing, a reboxing charge applies. For international orders specifically, if you refuse to pay our shipping invoice or supply a prepaid label after placing the order, the same deductions apply. We're upfront about this — please be sure of your purchase before ordering.

BMW E34 5 Series Height-Adjustable Suspension Upgrade

Unlock precise ride height control, sharper turn-in and a planted, confidence-inspiring feel on your classic 5 Series. This premium, height-adjustable shock and spring package is tailored to the E34 chassis for road-focused performance with everyday comfort. Expect reduced body movement, improved grip on B-roads and a clean, even stance that elevates both handling and appearance.

Why enthusiasts choose this setup

  • Factory-matched spring and damper rates for balanced road manners and confident cornering
  • Wide, tested height adjustment range for the perfect drop and stance
  • Corrosion resistant construction designed for long-term durability in UK conditions
  • Vehicle-specific engineering for the E34 platform, not a one-size-fits-all kit
  • Street-friendly comfort with genuine performance benefits

Front struts supplied on exchange

This kit uses front axle strut housings provided on an exchange basis, keeping OE geometry while delivering a serious upgrade. A practical solution for the E34 that ensures correct fitment and alignment.

Ride height range

Enjoy continuously adjustable lowering within the tested range. Depending on model, typical drops are approximately 30 to 70 mm or 50 to 90 mm. Height changes are quick and straightforward thanks to the robust adjustment hardware.
