The Dinan Racing Rear Toe Link Kit R280-0006 replaces the rear toe links on the E9X BMW M3 and E82 1M Coupe. The factory link uses rubber bushings and a curved forged alloy rod that flexes, which lets the rear toe change under hard acceleration and braking and unsettles the car at the limit.
Dinan replaces the rubber bushings with Teflon-lined steel rod ends and the curved rod with a straight billet aluminum rod, finished in black with a Dinan logo, as the product photos show. A hex-shaped center section makes fine rear toe adjustment easy, so the factory eccentrics are not needed to set toe. Dinan especially recommends it for cars on larger wheels and tires.
Fitment is the 2008-2013 E90/E92/E93 M3 and the 2011 E82 1M Coupe, matching Dinan's listing and other retailers. It does not fit non-M E8x or E9x models. Dinan marks this a racing-only part: it is not covered by Dinan's normal warranty and may affect the BMW and emissions warranties.
The kit includes two toe link assemblies, eight toe link spacers and two new BMW flange nuts. Installation means removing the stock links, matching the Dinan links to their length, torquing the fasteners to 74 ft-lbs and getting an alignment. Dinan quotes about 1.4 hours of labor and 3 Dinan points, and lists it under its emission code 5. It ships in one carton of about 24.4 x 12.8 x 8.4 inches at roughly 6.8 pounds. Dinan installation instructions (PDF).
