AFAIK monoballs can be serviced with a proper press, I don't see why it couldn't be done more than once. Monoballs should also last a long time so I don't even know you would need to replace multiple times before the complete arms would be replaced anyway.

It's the 8 year anniversary of owning my white E61 and it has come a long way, most of the changes are small mechanical/functional details which are not easily seen in photos but here are some Before/After photos showing the transformation.

Monoball control arms arrived which included: front lower thrust arms, front lower control arms, and rear upper control arm, my rear upper guide arms are already M5 units which are OEM monoballs. So this means all the control arms front and rear are now monoballs.![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)

Up next is:
- New tie rods, new rear ball joints (steering knuckle/integral link connection), raise the front suspension a bit, and another alignment.
- M5 LSD (3.62) to M3 DCT LSD (3.15) swap. 3.62 makes for "fun" acceleration but gears a bit too short for normal driving so a 3.15 will be a welcomed change. The 3.62 M5 LSD will be fitted with a 2.65 210mm ring/pinion from a manual V12 E31 and this LSD will be used in an upcoming 535D E61 build. 2.65 will be great for the diesel engine and the 210mm diff will be strong enough to handle the 600+wtq![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)

Moving Forward....
Got my shifter repaired by a local machine shop that tig welded it back together.
Monoball control arms arrived which included: front lower thrust arms, front lower control arms, and rear upper control arm, my rear upper guide arms are already M5 units which are OEM monoballs. So this means all the control arms front and rear are now monoballs.
![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)
Here are the front thrust arms:
Pics of the front lower and rear upper arms
My front lower bushings were beyond shot
The wagon also got new M5 front wheel bearings, they are essentially the same as RWD 535i bearings but they have 3 nubs to help locate the M5 rotors.
After the suspension upgrades I had an alignment done and boy, what a difference. Steering is sharp and the suspension feels solid and controlled. Yes, there is slightly more NVH but that is the trade off of monoballs and the upside significantly outweighs the minor downside.
One of my close friends just picked up a new-to-him F10 M5 and came to visit this last weekend. We attended a local Cars & Coffee in San Diego.

@ucsbwsr, your pics aren't working because you are hotlinking them to your google account...which requires authentication. So, you may be able to see them, but unless we are logged into your account, we cannot.

I suggest using some other host for your images like Flickr or Imgur. I used Imgur for the image I just posted. The URL for the image is simple: https://i.imgur.com/OHY0Ghd.png

Mind sharing a link to which harness you purchased? How is the system holding up?

The system has been disconnected for years since I borrowed the amp and processor for another wagon and never replaced it. My stereo is a 3.0L inline 6. As for the harness, I don't recall. The build thread says Techinc so I would google that and some BMW + audio terms and if the company is still around it should pop up.

Woah, it's been years since I've updated this ...better get to it!
In general the E61 has been a peach. Over the past 5-6 years it's been making 500+whp and I've only done typical maintenance and some small repairs/refreshes. Last May I moved to Colorado and the plan was to ship the E61, along with my E39 project wagon but logistic companies were a bunch of smoke and mirrors so I ended up loading up the E61 and making the 1,000+mile drive out in one day, pretty rough but got it done! I ended up driving my E70 from CO back to CA to rent a Uhaul trailer and tow the E39 back to CO. I became very familiar i70 running it x4 in a handful of days!
Anyway, lots to get caught up on!
Some ignition system maintenance back in San Diego

I have no idea when I last drained them so this is kind of worthless info but left is high-load OCC and right is low-load.
In general the E61 has been a peach. Over the past 5-6 years it's been making 500+whp and I've only done typical maintenance and some small repairs/refreshes. Last May I moved to Colorado and the plan was to ship the E61, along with my E39 project wagon but logistic companies were a bunch of smoke and mirrors so I ended up loading up the E61 and making the 1,000+mile drive out in one day, pretty rough but got it done! I ended up driving my E70 from CO back to CA to rent a Uhaul trailer and tow the E39 back to CO. I became very familiar i70 running it x4 in a handful of days!
Anyway, lots to get caught up on!
Some ignition system maintenance back in San Diego
Flooring run
Diff swap on the X5 and new o-rings (or hose I forget) on the E61
Decided to eat a belt, perhaps from my oil lines wheeping?
Pulleys and tensioners were due anyway. I did have an audible *wrrrrr* bearing noise at idle from one pulley so it was nice to get that resolved.
Picking up local tortillas for some smoked brisket and seared ahi (local from a buddy) TACOS!!!!
Random interior pic
New rotors and new tie rods
Doggo
OG vinyl wrap on window trim was ready to be replaced
...so I replaced it

Test fitting OEM 343M F12 fitment
Actually fitted
OOOF!
I had to get that rear fitment dialed.

Wagon love!
Finally got Swisstrax down in the SD house, juuuuuust in time for us to move to Colorado. Hope the renters like it!
